(4/4) Bye-bye, Diseased Donkey! 😆 'NP' is in memory of his grandma, who was a reggae fan. Unfortunately, some of the original tattoo reemerged after the lion healed, but the client was happy with the overall look and wanted to keep it that way. The foliage was especially fun to ink! Thanks so much for trusting me with this piece, Gareth, and thanks to @showmasters for making our paths cross at Comic Con! ✌ #NAOHOAstory⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #coverup #coveruptattoo #tattoocoverup #lion #liontattoo #rastaflag #ComicCon #CardiffComicCon @planoly #planoly #NAOHOAtattoo #tattoo #tattoostudio #tattoos #customtattoo #bespoketattoo #luxury #cardiff #cardifftattoo #tattoocardiff #newport #wales #bristol #bath #femaletattooartist #femaletattooist #ladytattooer (at NAOHOA) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx9j8wxBFfX/?igshid=1wsn94x1i5i5l

Inked my first sternum tattoo last week! The mandala was one of my Flash pieces and I free-handed the chandelier. . . For more one-off Flash designs, check out my Instagram Story Highlights. ✨ These will not be subjected to my Waiting List, as they're ready to ink. First-come-first-served and once a design has been picked, it's off the market forever! . . Have a great weekend, folks. 😊 . . . #mandala #mandalatattoo #fineline #finelinetattoo #minimalisttattoo #sternumtattoo #chandliertattoo #tattoo #cardiff #cardifftattoo #tattoocardiff #newport #wales #bristol #bath #femaletattooist #femaletattooartist #ladytattooer (at NAOHOA) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx4gee1gfY6/?igshid=sgnx6b9xg24y

#ThrowbackThursday! Here's a snippet of Spring, from my 'Four Seasons' piece, which was tattooed on @apoundofflesh arm. This was my first attempt at using coloured ink, back in 2015. 🎨 All inks at NAOHOA are vegan-friendly, with the added bonus of colours by @kurosumitattooink being organic too! 🌈 . . . #happyspring #spring #fourseasons #colourtattoo #cherryblossomtattoo #apoundofflesh #veganfriendly #organic @planoly #planoly #NAOHOAtattoo #tattoo #tattoostudio #tattoos #customtattoo #bespoketattoo #luxury #cardiff #cardifftattoo #tattoocardiff #newport #wales #bristol #bath #femaletattooartist #femaletattooist #ladytattooer (at NAOHOA) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxzlV8QADOm/?igshid=mweqlu9vktta

(3/4) On the far left is the original tattoo from 20 years ago. In the first session (middle), I faded it out with skin-tone ink and put down the outline of my design. Once healed, I went over it with colour. 🦁 #NAOHOAstory⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #coverup #coveruptattoo #tattoocoverup #lion #liontattoo #rastaflag #ComicCon #CardiffComicCon @showmasters @planoly #planoly #NAOHOAtattoo #tattoo #tattoostudio #tattoos #customtattoo #bespoketattoo #luxury #cardiff #cardifftattoo #tattoocardiff #newport #wales #bristol #bath #femaletattooartist #femaletattooist #ladytattooer (at NAOHOA) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxwtekeBWuk/?igshid=8dirpz2f1z6v

#ThrowbackThursday! This was my third attempt at tattooing, using a silicone arm made by A Pound of Flesh (@apoundofflesh). 🦁 It's also what prompted this month's #NAOHOAstory ! . . . #tattoo #tattoopractice #apoundofflesh #practice #cardiff #cardifftattoo #tattoocardiff #newport #wales #bristol #bath #femaletattooist #femaletattooartist #ladytattooer (at NAOHOA) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxiXOuHguqO/?igshid=1hax8vyrv1fku

Let’s start at the very beginning, a very good place to start...(/unrelated reference). Throughout May, I’ll be sharing Flash Designs I’ve put together in hype of the Detective Pikachu movie and the release of Pokémon Sword & Shield later this year! 👏😬⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ All proceeds will go towards buying Nintendo Switches for Zan and I. 🤣 No jokez - we work our butts off 6 days a week and are seriously looking forward to gaming together. Cost of these tattoos vary on how big you want them. I’ve also got temporary tattoos printed (£2 each for 4-5cm prints) and am thinking of doing them in henna at Comic Con (£5 each) in September. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Who did you choose as your starter in the good old days? Comment below! 👇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #NAOHOAtattoo #tattoo #tattoostudio #tattoos #customtattoo #bespoketattoo #luxury #cardiff #cardifftattoo #tattoocardiff #newport #wales #bristol #bath #femaletattooartist #femaletattooist #ladytattooer #pokemon #pokemontattoo #PokemonSwordAndShield #DetectivePikachu #nintendo #tattooflash #bulbasaur #charmander #squirtle #ComicCon (at NAOHOA) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxe5XiuARac/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4iyjcqstnvar

(1/4) After spotting my lion tattoo that was on display at Comic Con, this client approached me to cover up, what his family had fondly dubbed, his "diseased donkey". 😂🐴🦁 #NAOHOAstory⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #consultation #facetoface #meettheartist #coverup #comicon #comicconcardiff @showmasters @planoly #planoly #NAOHOAtattoo #tattoo #tattoostudio #tattoos #customtattoo #bespoketattoo #luxury #cardiff #cardifftattoo #tattoocardiff #newport #wales #bristol #bath #femaletattooartist #femaletattooist #ladytattooer (at NAOHOA) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxZe2EHBxJX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vn7lijmpjimj
