Hi! I’m James, a South London tattooist specialising in Traditional, Japanese, and Ornamental tattoos.
I’ve spent the last 8 years creating bold, striking designs – from classic traditional to detailed pattern work and colourful Japanese designs. You can find me working at Moth & Flame Tattoo shop in Bromley. Whether you’re looking for a small meaningful piece, or a large flowing tattoo, I’d love to bring your ideas to life.

So please don’t hesitate to get in touch!
