Tattoo Flash Designs

I create original tattoo flash designed to be tattooed more than once. This collection is a window into my style and approach to traditional tattooing, and if you see something you love, it’s available to book.

I love flash for what it is: bold, repeatable designs that are meant to be collected and worn. If you like the idea behind a flash design but want something more personal, I’m always open to reworking it into a custom piece made just for you.

See something you love? Fill out my booking form to book a flash design or start a custom piece.
