Custom artwork

Your idea. My drawn at my desk.

Custom artwork for a tattoo, your home or someone you care about. 

Tattoo & T-Shirt designed by Beau

A conversation, then a drawing

We’ll work it out together.

You don’t need a finished brief. Tell me what you’re drawn to, what the piece means to you and where you imagine it ending up.

I’ll help shape the concept and work out what’s possible before we lock in the project.

Tell me about your idea

In their words

Long live the true artists; F*ck AI. 

“Right when I planned to get your design tattooed we learned we were pregnant, so we had to postpone it until baby was born. Now I have a new son and some new ink! The tattoo artists LOVED the design. It’s so strong and feminine. It means a lot to me and my journey over the last season. Thank you for this piece. Thank you for your gift.”

How it works

From the first thought to the final piece.

01

Agree on the idea.

Send me your idea and references. We’ll work through the brief, what’s included and the quote before you commit.

03

Review the sketch.

When I start your piece, I’ll send a draft sketch for you to review. We’ll agree on the drawing before I move on to inking.

04

See it finished.

You’ll review the final inked piece before I prepare and send your finished artwork.

*The queue estimate is the wait before I start your piece, rather than a completion date. I’ll confirm timing before you pay the deposit.

A guide to the investment

Different ideas need different amounts of work.

The complexity of the composition and number of elements help determine the quote. These are starting points for our conversation.

Simple

I’ll recommend the scope and confirm the quote from your brief. Usage terms and the full scope are agreed in your quote.

A few things you might be wondering.

Do I need to know exactly what I want?

No. Tell me what you like, what matters to you and any elements you want to include. We can build the idea from there.

Can this be for something other than a tattoo?

Absolutely. Let me know whether it’s a print, a gift or another personal project. For brand and commercial work, head to Collaborations.

How does tattoo size affect the design?

Smaller tattoos need simpler shapes and more space between lines. A larger piece gives us room for more detail. Tell me the placement and approximate size so we can plan the artwork around it.

Can I use artwork you’ve already made?

Yes. If you’ve already found a design you love, the tattoo permission page is the right place to start.

Let’s start with your idea

What are you thinking?

A rough idea is absolutely fine. I’ll read through it and we can take it from there.

I’ll review your idea and reply by email to discuss the brief, quote and timing. Submitting an enquiry doesn’t commit you to a booking.

In their words

Exactly What I Had in Mind 

“Beau has designed a couple tattoos for me and I couldn’t be more pleased with his work. Not only is the art itself incredible, but his thoroughness and communication with me to make sure the piece was exactly what I wanted was exceptional. I’ll definitely be getting some more of Beau’s pieces in future. Highly recommend.”
