Fran Hartnett is a resident artist at Skin City Tattoo Dublin, working
in his own unique modern and abstract style – colourful, energetic,
and painterly.
Fran’s visual art background is primarily in painting, and his tattoos
often look painted, with visible brush strokes, daubs and splashes of
paint, and sketchy pencil lines rendered into the designs.
Favourite styles: Modern, Abstract, Watercolour, llustrative.

Penny Lane works on custom designs fully inspired by the cultural traditions of many styles as Polynesian, American traditional, Neo-traditional, Cartoons, Illustrations and Ancient-Mystical writings. She also works with paintings and drawings on demand.​

Born in Verona, I’m a self-taught tattoo artist. I inherited my passion for art from my mother, who taught me the basis of drawing and calligraphy. After concluding art school, I started my career as a tattoo artist almost by chance while preparing drawings for tattoo studios.

After collaborating with many other tattoo artists, I have been working at Ink Inside Studio in Verona for the past 5 years. Just like nature consists of diverse elements, my art is deeply rooted in different styles, joining realism with blackwork, neo-traditional and ancient calligraphy. I dream of travelling doing my job and maturing my style participating in conventions and working with other international artists.

Lucas Costa, from Brazil and tattooing since 2017, I like to mix a sketch style with blackwork.

My name is Emma Williams, I’m a 21 year old tattoo artist based out of Inkredible Inks. My preferred styles of tattooing are realism and abstract realism and I enjoy tattooing in both colour and black and grey

My name is Omar Furriel Tattoo artist since 2009, from São Paulo – Brazil, I am dedicated to solid color and clean lines.

Inspired by classic tattoos and street culture, my favourite style is traditional, and fine line with latin themes.

My name is Marcel Joaquim and I’m a professional tattoo artist from Göttingen, Germany and owner of Black Hand Tattoo Parlor in Sieboldshausen, Germany.
I’m 31 years old and I’m doing tattoos professionally since September 2017.
But It all started on April, the 1st, 2014. On this day I got a tattoo from a good friend who was also
the best tattoo artist in our region at that time.
For the first time I got tattooed on an area where I had a pretty good look on the whole process.
While I was watching how he tattooed, I was getting more and more fascinated every minute, and I couldn’t stop watching.
I can remember that I thought, I think I could do that too!  And I was right.
About nine months later I bought my first professional tattoo equipment and did my first tattoo on
myself. Pretty soon I already had a lot of requests and I was tattooing many of my friends in that time.
For the next two years I was only doing tattoos as a hobby, as I was studying economics in university, had a job and was traveling a lot.

In 2017, I finally realised that tattooing is all what I want to do. I just knew that I found my passion and to achieve my goals the only opportunity was to get rid of all the rest. So I quit the jobs, left the university and started focusing exclusively on tattooing. I decided to become self-employed and with the help of my girlfriend Nicole we rebuilt one room in our flat into a small but very nice tattoo studio. Pretty soon, the quality of my works increased with every tattoo and soon after I wasn’t able to handle the requests anymore. And we just couldn’t do it anymore in our home.
It wasn’t just friends anymore, and some people came a long way just to get a tattoo from me. Right at that time, two very good friends of mine bought a big property in the village were I live. They offered me a really beautiful and big room where I could open my first own atelier-like shop in October 2018 – the Black Hand Tattoo Parlor.
One of my best friends started with his own business in the same property and so we established the “New Plaze out of Town”. A collaboration of four businesses all based in the same location.
We have just started and are currently developing every day. But the future will hold great things.
Meanwhile my girlfriend Nicole took over all management tasks, what led to a much more professional process and gives me the time to focus exclusively on doing what I love most –
creating awesome tattoos.
I would describe my style as black and grey realism with a high grade of details.
I’m often described as a very gentle tattooist, and my works usually heal very fast.
This year is the first time that I’m attending a tattoo convention. My first will be the International
Berlin Tattoo Convention in August and I can’t wait to be part of the Dublin International Tattoo Convention in November.
Cheers,
Marcel.

Im Kaija.
I’m 22 years old and born in Germany. 
I like Norse tattoos and nearly everything that has to do with Morse mythology or Norse stuff in total.

French-American by birth, I grew up in Lyon, where I studied art and graphic design.  After working  in that field for a few years in different countries, I branched out into tattooing in 2012.  After my apprenticeship, I decided to open my own shop in Lyon, so I’d be free to develop my own style:  mainly in black and grey with fine lines, and an illustrative style. I love flowers and animals of every kind. I also do geometrical and ornamental styles.
