About

I'm Nadine, and I tattoo by hand.

I was born and raised in Austria and moved to the UK in 2014. I've worked as a secondary school teacher before but was always into tattoos (got my first one in 2003).

Since living in the UK I started working in tattoo studios. I've done most jobs in this industry from receptionist to tattoo removal, SPMU, but then found my true passion, handpoke tattooing, in 2020. I was drawn to this technique as it has a long history across many cultures and my customers appreciate the slower, more calm process of tattooing.

I specialise in ornamental tattoos, as well as finger and ear adornments. I love creating delicate, considered pieces designed to feel like a natural extension of the body. Each tattoo is created slowly and intentionally making your experience as personal as each finished piece.

I feel incredibly fortunate to have found a job that allows me to combine my creativity with creating meaningful connections with all you wonderful people. I get to be part of someone's story and I get to do something I love and was able to turn it into a career. Thank you for your continuous support and interest in my passion.
