THE INK NURSENURSE BY DAY. ARTIST BY NIGHT.
INDEPENDENT TATTOO ARTIST · CHESTERFIELD
Thoughtful, considered tattoos — created with care, precision and a passion for the art.
EST. WITH PASSION
A DIFFERENT CHAPTER. THE SAME VALUES.
Hi, I'm the person behind The Ink Nurse. After 20 years working in the NHS — including 15 years as a nurse — I felt ready for a new chapter.
I've always had a creative side. Art was my strongest subject at school, and I've always loved drawing, detail and making things. Tattooing has given me the chance to bring that artistic side into something new, while keeping the care and consideration that have always mattered to me.
I'm also a very proud dad to two beautiful girls. Family means everything, and making this change is about building something I can be passionate about and proud of.
My approach is simple: be a good person. Be kind, considerate and caring. Make people feel welcome, listen properly, have a smile and don't sweat the small stuff. Life is short, and I want every person who comes through the door to feel comfortable, respected and looked after.
Whether you've got a fully formed design or just the beginning of an idea, I'd love to have a chat and see what we can create together.
Come and say hello ↗From delicate details to bold statement pieces, let's develop a design that feels right for you.
Depth, contrast and carefully built tones.
Balance, symmetry and intricate pattern.
Personal ideas developed into individual artwork.
A selection of recent pieces. More work and new designs are shared on social media.
A selection of finished tattoos and practice-skin studies. The image captions identify the practice pieces clearly.
Good tattoos start with a good conversation.
THE INK NURSEEvery tattoo is different. The best way to get an accurate price for your idea is to get in touch and have a chat.
A full-day booking includes up to an hour for consultation and planning, followed by six hours of tattooing time. We also allow for breaks during the session, so there is time to pause, reset and make sure you are comfortable.
Ask about a full-day booking ↗The full-day rate is £150. For smaller tattoos, individual pieces and anything that doesn't need a full-day session, pricing is discussed individually. Send me your idea, approximate size and placement and I'll come back to you with a quote. No two designs are exactly the same, so it's always best to contact me.
Have a design in mind, or just want to explore an idea? Send a message with a few details and we'll take it from there.
