A Fresh Start In Ink
A considered cover-up begins with understanding what needs to change and what you want to create.
A More Personal Way to Reimagine Existing Ink
I review your current tattoo, placement, size, colour, and any areas you would like the new design to emphasise or avoid. We discuss your preferred imagery, style, and the feeling you want the finished piece to have. This gives me the information needed to develop a cover-up direction that is both visually strong and personal.
The consultation also creates space for practical guidance about composition and expectations. You will leave with a clearer sense of what is possible, how the design can be shaped around the existing ink, and what details will help the new artwork feel intentional rather than simply concealed.
Ideal For
Anyone ready to transform unwanted tattoo work
Clients with faded, dark, or uneven existing ink
People seeking a design created around their personal style
Anyone wanting a thoughtful plan before booking the tattoo
How It Works
Share Your Tattoo: Provide photos, placement details, and the changes you would like to make.
Discuss Your Direction: Talk through imagery, style, scale, and the overall feeling you want.
Shape The Concept: I use the consultation to guide a custom cover-up design suited to your existing ink.
