About Me
My name’s Oli and I’m a 33 year old tattooer at Black Hope Tattoo in Colchester. I started tattooing in 2025 under the guidance of the amazing artists at Black Hope.
My favourite styles are ornamental blackwork and black & grey realism with a fantasy/illustrative leaning, but I’m keen to become proficient in every style of tattooing.
I got into tattooing because I wanted to do something where at the end of each day I feel like I did something tangible that improved someone’s life a tiny bit, something permanent and personal. It’s also a good excuse to get tattooed a lot myself.
Outside of tattooing I’m into Dungeons & Dragons, Pokemon and petting animals.
