Styles & Focus
Aaron specializes in black and grey realism and watercolour tattoos, combining technical skill with creative expression to craft tattoos that are both visually striking and deeply personal. He enjoys the challenge of realism, capturing intricate details, lifelike textures, and subtle shading, while his watercolour work allows for vibrant colours, flowing shapes, and artistic freedom. Every tattoo Aaron creates is carefully planned to ensure it not only looks stunning on completion but also maintains clarity and longevity over time. His focus on precision, depth, and creativity ensures that each piece is unique, tailored to the client, and designed to make a lasting impression.
Memorable Experiences
One moment Aaron will never forget happened on his very first day working in a studio in Spain. Everything was going smoothly until, mid-session, a client suddenly fainted and fell off the tattoo bed. For a brief, terrifying moment, Aaron genuinely feared the worst, thinking she might have been seriously hurt or worse. It was a sudden and shocking experience, especially on his very first day in a professional studio environment.
Fortunately, the client was completely fine, and the incident ended with relief and a few nervous laughs. Looking back, Aaron remembers it as a wild introduction to the realities of tattooing, teaching him to stay calm under pressure and be prepared for anything. The experience also gave him perspective on the importance of client care, safety, and maintaining composure in unexpected situations—lessons that continue to shape how he approaches his work today.
Connection with Clients
Aaron takes a collaborative and thoughtful approach when working with clients, ensuring each tattoo reflects their personal vision. He enjoys sitting down and discussing ideas in detail, listening carefully to what the client wants while offering professional guidance to make the design work perfectly on the skin. Whether it’s adjusting placement, refining elements, or suggesting creative enhancements, Aaron aims to strike the right balance between the client’s concept and what will look best as a lasting tattoo.
By working closely with each person, Aaron ensures the final piece is not only visually striking but also meaningful and long-lasting. His focus on communication, understanding, and attention to detail creates a positive, reassuring experience for clients, allowing them to feel confident and involved throughout the tattooing process.
Personal Interests
Outside of tattooing, Aaron enjoys a variety of activities that help him relax, recharge, and stay creatively inspired. He spends quality time with his family, cherishing those moments as a source of joy and balance in his life. He also enjoys gaming, which provides a fun escape and sparks his imagination, and playing guitar, allowing him to express creativity in a different medium.
In addition, Aaron is passionate about riding his motorbike, which gives him a sense of freedom and adventure while offering time to clear his mind. These hobbies all contribute to keeping his energy levels high and his creativity flowing, directly influencing the focus, detail, and originality he brings to every tattoo he creates.
