📚 The reader tarot card for Erin 📚
Tarot card tattoos are fun, even more so when there are books involved!

I`m currently reading a folk horror called The Reddening. I`ve read a bunch of folk horror this year and they always make me feel a bit uneasy after, as they tend to be based in England. I`ll probably go back to some silly romantasy after for a palette cleanser lmao. What are ya`ll reading atm? Would loooove some horror recs 👀👀
(Also if anyone wants to trade Goodreads hmu)

Demon kitty cover up for Dee!!!! Thank you for trusting me with this mahooosive project. We did this over two sittings with the linework and most of the black being in the first one, and the colour in the second! We might need to do a lil touch up sitting but we will see how it`s all settled in!
.
Would love to do more pieces similar to this (doesn`t have to be a cover up, but am also open to doing cover ups/reworks!)
Swipe to the end for the before ✨

Well, Brugge convention was certainly... a weekend. Thank you to those who got tattooed. Incredibly grateful to ya`ll ❤️ Big thank you to those who grabbed a card, sticker or had a lil chat also. Met some really lovely, incredibly talented artists. It`s such a huge, huge shame that the promotion was lacking. There was a massive banner outside advertising a fishing convention next March though! Fantastique! 🐟🐟🐟 Hopefully see ya`ll again (maybe, elsewhere?)
.
Big thank you to @coralmoon.tattoo for travel buddying! We managed to do 4 museums and one walking tour on our non-con day, plus we saw the giant mech spider like?? 3 times?? so I think we did pretty well in exploring✨

Holly asked me to do a tattoo of her pet gerbils, Salt and Pepper, to fill a gap! so that`s what we did! Tysm! Would love to do more kawaii pet portraits. ✨Probably✨ won`t get realism out of me, but cartoonified portrait? Absolutely!
