I help refresh or transform existing ink with a thoughtful cover-up.

Custom Cover-Up Design

60 min

A considered cover-up begins with understanding what is already there and what you want to see instead.

A More Personal Way to Refresh Existing Ink

I assess the current tattoo, including its size, placement, colour, and visual weight, then explore design directions that can work naturally with those details. Together, we discuss the styles, imagery, and overall feeling you want the finished tattoo to carry.

The process is collaborative and realistic. I explain how the existing ink may influence the design, identify the strongest options, and create a clear plan for artwork that feels intentional on your skin.

Ideal For
