  • Lettering

    Spelling, spacing and placement settled with you before we start.

  • Sleeves

    Drawn as one piece, then built over as many sessions as it takes.

Book a cover-up

Stencil to skin.

The stencil goes on first. Nothing is permanent until you have seen it on your skin and said yes.

  1. The black widow stencil in purple transfer ink on the ankle, the web mapped out and no black laid in yet

    01 Stencil

  2. The same spider part way through: the body and legs carrying their first black, purple stencil still showing around the web

    02 First black

  3. The spider filled in, body solid and legs shaded, the last of the stencil still faintly visible

    03 Filled

  4. The finished black widow, stencil wiped away, every web line thread-thin against the skin

    04 Finished
