“I went on a 14 day silent retreat and it was probably the hardest thing I’ve ever done.Towards the end of the two weeks I had what I think I can only describe as an out of body experience during the 4am session. I felt an overwhelming bubble of sadness and guilt literally rise within me but it wasn’t mine I was just experiencing it for someone else, I opened my eyes in floods of soundless tears that also felt not mine.I forgave my mum there and then, and it felt natural that I would stand by her no matter what, no more distancing myself, no more pushing her to get help, I would just be there unconditionally.When I left and came back home my mum told me she had something to tell me. She’d woken up really early in the morning (around 4am) and she said it was then clear what she had to do and why she had to do it.I believe I felt what my mum was feeling. I still don’t know what my mum actually felt that morning but it gave her the power and motivation to change her life.”“There are no constraints on the human mind, no walls around the human spirit, no barriers to our progress except those we ourselves erect.”– Ronald ReaganThank you Tanis for your trust and for the complete freedom with your tattoo!

For me it is an entire process to connect and prepare both of ourselves for the tattoo, part of the experience.... Keep creating, keep growing.“The world is given to me only once, not one existing and one perceived. Subject and object are only one. The barrier between them cannot be said to have broken down as a result of recent experience in the physical sciences, for this barrier does not exist.” ― Erwin Schrodinger Thank you Charley for your trust and for the complete freedom with your tattoo! I loved working on this one as its subject is very close to me. “There's something poetic about the basis of life being greater than the known universe. Similarly with wave-particle duality, I was always taught that electrons were subatomic particles so to discover that they're also waves opens up a whole new bunch of questions that I'm looking to answer. In short what I'm looking for the design to represent is the unanswered and unanswerable questions but also the comfort that comes from the unknown.” By @peterlaeviv Inquiries: peter.laeviv@gmail.com . . . . . #tattoodo #singleneedle #londontattooartist #tattooart #blaTwo #abstract #portraits as part of a bigger piece “I was born in the highlands but raised on the coast: my bones are the mountains and my blood is the ocean.” – Daniel Thank you Daniel for your trust and for the complete freedom with your idea! Project was done few months back, as always. We had to finish the whole thing in one sitting. Normally a project like this would take 1.5-2 full day sessions' worth of time, but it was a fun challenge to see where my threshold lies. Cudos to Daniel for sitting perfectly, true to his disciplined mind as a martial artist.

You get scared and open your eyes and find that there is nobody. Was it a dream? You most likely saw your own version from a parallel realm. Many versions of you exist in parallel realms. Difference between any two versions of you can be as little as that of a mole or as big as that of gender.” – Shunya I created a simpler version of this design some years ago (it was never tattooed), some of you might even remember. Scott wanted to get it tattooed, so I decided to add to it to make it a more ‘current’ version of mine. Thank you Scott for your trust! Project was done a few months back.

You can't have been in one place and another at the same time. Of all those lives, which one is the right one? - Each of these lives is the right one! Every path is the right path.

I’d like to be reminded that I can always be a better version of myself if I keep working on it, while I’m in peace with my current state.” Project was done a few months back while I was visiting home in Hungary.

“[...] My grandparents in France had this oak tree in the back garden which later seeded in my parents garden. As I don’t live in France, not sure if I will return, move elsewhere, or stay here I don't quite know if I will be able to grow one from the same tree’s seed. So I wanted to always have it with me as it is a family symbol for us and oak trees are pretty robust growing strong for long.”— ArnaudThank you Arnaud for your trust and for the complete freedom with your idea!

And so perhaps that’s the idea, no? Doesn’t everyone feel a little lost? Do they sometimes feel like they are walking in circles? Are on a thin wire between the ‘success of life’ and the demons that become obstacles? Sometimes I find it hard to know what it is I’m doing. What it is I want. Which often leaves space for insecurities to sneak inside my head and make everything seem fuzzy and out of reach.”— ElleThank you Elle for your trust and for the complete freedom with your idea!

Clients first tattoo for this tough kid. Gonna wrap around the arm next month. Really a challenge for artist and client both to sit this long but I really love doing big pieces that come together when planning it out and pacing myself for the effort. This craft is definitely not easy but it’s all worth the reward at the end. Blessed to do this for a living and always continuing to learn and grow as an artist and being. Thanks to all my clients for the support and dedication. On to the next.

A bit about the project: “Altair is part of an asterism called the summer triangle (which joins Altair, Deneb and Vega) to help us see in the stars that it's summer. The summer constellation will resemble the significance that this summer and year has had on me since I have gone through quite significant struggles this year and the tattoo will mark me turning over a new leaf.” – Olivia The other significant inspiration was the H4 Harrison clock: “Aided by some of London's finest workmen, John Harrison proceeded to design and make the world's first succes“Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes” – Mahatma Gandhi Thank you Eddie for your trust and for the complete freedom with your first tattoo! Project was done few months back, as usual. “[...] I would like a tattoo inspired by my childhood and travels I have done. I have done a lot of adventurious travelling abroad including a lot of hiking up mountains in countries such as Peru and Nepal. Seeing and getting to immerse myself in other cultures has certainly broadened my view and brought me down to earth. My parents have sacrificed a lot to me in my childhood and brought me up in the manner where I should learn from my mistakes and they have given me all the freedom I could have had.

They are sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself. They come through you but not from you. And though they are with you yet they belong not to you. You may give them your love but not your thoughts, for they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, for thir souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday. You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth. The archer sees the make upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far. Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness. For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He also loves the bow that is stable.” – Gibran Khalil Gibran Thank you Ben for your trust and for the complete freedom with your idea! Ben’s “There were many times in my life, when I could've thrown in the towel. Many times in my life when I was on the floor. And when you're on the floor, never allow anybody to pick you up. It doesn't matter how long you stay there, make sure you pick yourself up and dust yourself down. Whatever happens, whether you go home today or you don't go home today, that's irrelevant. What's relevant, is you take the knowledge from the experience and you grow as a person.” — Marco Pierre White Thank you Alexandre for your trust and for the complete freedom with your first tattoo!

We spent 3 days together so far, and more is to come. You will see progression of this project in the coming days.
