Question 1

The artist

Accepted Answer

Hi, I’m Gem, welcome to my little corner of the world. Within my work, you will find an eclectic mixture of bright and bold imagery intertwined with delicate detail. Living tangent to tangent and unable to pin myself down to one discipline, I have become a versatile, self taught artist. My inspiration is often found in the dance between the beauty of the natural world, wonders of the spiritual realm and the life force of our urban jungle.

I adore working through wild and wonderful ideas with clients. Learning about new subjects, helping you through big life moments and having some silly fun along the way.

Although I work in a number of styles, I’m probably best known for my colour work, sketch style and dot work.

I’m very passionate about what I do and if I can’t create your vision or feel like I’m not quite the right artist for you, I’ll recommend one of my incredible peers.

Question 2

What to expect when you visit

Accepted Answer

I am lucky enough to spend my days within the walls of The Trinity, floating between the tattoo studio and art room. When you visit, you’ll find a chilled little space, full of welcoming humans. Wether you’re booked in for a super silly and spontaneous tattoo or something a little deeper, I consider tattooing a sacred and and intuitive craft and I’m here for whatever you need. I prefer to do my consultations and booking in person and meet your lovely faces before the day of the tattoo where possible. It really helps me to create a better tattoo and environment for you if I know who you are. And, also, it gives you the chance to see if you’re down for my weird little vibe too. I’m super passionate and professional when it comes to tattooing but, I’m also a human with lots of quirks, day dreams and abc’s. I’m not everyone’s cup of tea and that’s ok but, I love finding those who align and i will be a goofy little chatterbox if you let me.

Question 3

The human

Accepted Answer

I'm extremely passionate about my craft and I hold myself to high professional standards in terms of the service I provide and ensuring a hygienic and comfortable environment.

However, I am a human being, loving and giving but also currently in recovery. Healing physically, mentally and spiritually. And while I'm on my way back, I'm taking the scenic route and won't be at full capacity for a while.
There may be days that I have flare ups, some of which will affect our appointment with delays or rebooking, some will just require me to move slower through our day and some, you'll just think I'm a bit erratic (disclaimer, im always an erratic little being, thanks then audhd 😂)

It's important right now for my clients to know that, while I'm not always 100% on top of the whole world , I won't ever give you any less in the work I produce and I'll always be completely transparent.

Question 4

Open hours

Question 5

Booking info

Accepted Answer

I'm using this platform to keep all of my admin in one location; most of the time, I'll still ask you to pop in to the studio for a consultation, it really helps me connect.
In person consults generally take around 20-40minutes
