Livin' on the bright side of life

I spend my days freelancing from my home studio in beautiful Simon’s Town – consistently making, moving and handpoke tattooing. I love working with good humans and their visions, creating relatable concepts and unique imagery for their brands, their walls and even their skin.

Dear Nichole, I am so happy with my beautiful moon. I have been thinking all day about how special the tattoo ceremony was. I really enjoyed our time together, your energy, space, the palo santo ritual, the angel cards (still reflecting on the magic contained within the messages). What a wonderful project you’ve created, leaving a little piece of you on others and for such a good cause.

Hi Nichole, I just wanted to let you know how happy I am with my tattoos. They look great and I’ve received only compliments. Everyone loves them! Thanks a million.

Nichole, thank you so much. You’ve changed my whole perspective on getting artwork on my body. You made it so special and personal that I couldn’t imagine ever getting a tattoo done in any other way. I’ll be forever grateful for your artwork on my shoulder. It’s almost like my best friend always having my back.

I just want to say thanks SO much for everything you guys are doing. The service you offer and the work that you and your team create is seriously impressive. In fact – it’s literally insane. So amazing THANK YOU.

Hi Nichole, just wanted to show you how beautifully my lovely piece has healed. I think it’s attracted a lot more butterflies than I think would otherwise have visited me to send me little signs. Again, thank you for giving me something that reminds me of so much and how small we are in the biggest universe. You are just incredible and you’ve managed to completely change my mums view on tattoos – and now she wants one from you too!
