A sticker sleeve journey with Tommy.

There’s something sweet about building a sleeve piece by piece~each tattoo marks a different chapter, memory, or moment in time. Together they become a visual journal~collected slowly, intentionally, and allowed to evolve with the person wearing them.

Every session adds another layer to the story, while still leaving room for whatever comes next.

I’m loving this way of creating as well. There’s no rush to finish~just an ongoing collaboration where each piece has space to breathe before becoming part of something much bigger.

Thanks for the trust, Tommy. Looking forward to the next chapter.

If this connects with you, or if you’re looking for larger compositions or other styles, I’d love to collaborate on ideas and create something magickal together. ༆ by @sacredtatu

For what felt like an eternity, I wandered in search of my purpose. Through trials and the perfect alignment of moments, I’ve unearthed talents I never knew resided within me until recent times.

My journey into tattooing wasn’t just because it seemed cool; it became a means for me to heal from emotional pain I carried. 12 years ago I was given an opportunity to learn this art form. Over time, I immersed myself in this craft, learning from some of the industry’s finest, and I’m constantly amazed by the discipline and creativity it fosters.

As I shared my stories with clients, I unknowingly found healing through their interest and the space they held for me. Now, it’s my turn to give back. I want to dedicate time and effort to this art while holding space for my clients, I am committed to infusing every design with intention, serving as a vessel for transformation.

It’s about showing up for ourselves so we can present our best selves to the world. I wholeheartedly believe in what I offer, and if you feel drawn to it, I eagerly await the opportunity to share this experience with you.

“Art is the absence of fear.”

Delicious words by Erykah Badu. 𓋹

To me, art is also the act of creating despite of fear.

Of expressing through whatever is present. fear, grief, joy, love, or uncertainty and willingness to create alongside it.

Sometimes the emotion isn’t something to overcome.
Maybe it’s the very thing that gives the art its soul.
What do you think? 💭

Thank you Leigh for co~creating this vision and project to life with me.

It’s been so special to witness your determination, resilience and grit through everything life has brought your way.

I’m grateful to have shared this journey and created something so meaningful together. Till next time..

Whether you’re seeking a small intentional piece/a larger, more immersive project, or simply create art together~ I’d love to hear from you. ༆ by @sacredtatu

Sinead was one of the first incredible humans who trusted me to tattoo them during my very first year of apprenticeship.

14 years later, we’re still creating together.

Thank you for believing in me from the very beginning and for continuing to trust me with your skin and your story.

Now taking bookings in the Northern Rivers and Sydney.
From small pieces to larger projects.

Bastet ♡

Ancient Egyptian goddess of protection, sensuality, intuition, fertility, music, and sacred feminine power.

Often depicted as a cat or lioness, she carried both softness and ferocity ~ nurturing what she loved while fiercely protecting it. 𓂀

It was so special creating this with you, Nicky.
Thank you for trusting me with this design and sharing insights with this goddess.
May she guide and protect your journey onwards.𓃠

~ what if we’re not here to suffer… but here to remember ~

Much love xx by @sacredtatu

The thought of being on stage terrified me…but a few months ago, something happened.
The shame and fear of being seen transformed into freedom.
No one pushed me to do it but there was just a part of me that I knew needed unleashing.

Growing up, I was always getting into trouble for questioning things. I was the “rebellious one”always asking who, what, and why.

Over time, through the challenges of life and the journey of meeting myself more deeply, I found peace within myself. I forgave my past, discovered my own beliefs, and learnt to become friends with grace.

And I know this will be a lifelong practice..

But somewhere along the way, I hid another layer of myself.
The wild.
The crazy.
The funny girl with all the audacity in the world and finds humour through it all.

So here she is screaming …

F*k outdated conditioning!
F*k tolerating others behaviour that never gets called out!
F*k anything that disconnects us from truth and our collective rising..
this dance gave me that outlet.

To me, liberation is embracing all of who we are.
The inner Madonna and Mary Magdalene.The light and the dark.The graceful and the chaotic.

Not choosing one over the other, but learning to express every part of ourselves with honesty, awareness and love. Through this- we’re able to show up so much better in this beautifully crazy world.

Gratitude for this body~this temple that carries every emotion. Despite the nerves and wanting to get every move right, it was always about having fun and we’re here & have the right to have just that.

This reminded me it was never about the destination.It was always about the journey.The unfolding.The becoming and being present enough to witness it all.

& that for me is sexy.

Thank you to my dear friend and soul sister, Hannah, for holding this vision and planting the seeds of this beautiful revolution.

Thank you, Marley, for the amazing Dark Flame container.

Thank you to the Wildwomen Army for the courage, laughter, and sisterhood.

And thank you to the Bruns Picture House for holding space for all this magick.

Both the Wildwomen Army and Bruns Picture House Instagram accounts are currently suspended for reasons unknown, so I’m sendin by @sacredtatu

With mystic allure, snakes possess the extraordinary ability to shed their entire skin. As they journey through growth, their former skin becomes too tight and weary, prompting the emergence of a fresh layer beneath.

This exquisite process of shedding, known as ecdysis, not only facilitates their growth but also liberates them from parasites attached to the old skin. Leaving any lingering burdens, purifying their essence with each graceful renewal…

This is her story… @hannah.olia.wang

Thank you ♥︎ by @sacredtatu

Calling in more goddesses ☥

Spaces now open for Sydney & Byron studios 𓂀 by @sacredtatu

To be rooted in the earth’s embrace,
To yield perpetually to the present’s grace,
To touch the peak of consciousness’ span,
To transcend the bounds of the physical plan.

Thank you Ryan by @sacredtatu

What if we let nature be medicine…

That in quieting the noise,
we remembered how to feel safe ~
in our bodies,
in this world.

Sometimes when we truly listen,
nature speaks in codes.

Thank you Alex
So honoured to create this protection piece together ♡ by @sacredtatu

She came in with just a feeling of wanting a tattoo.
Something Egyptian, ancient, geometric,
a tiger… maybe a bird.

We started with one piece.

and through the years..
through trust,
more revealed itself.

Now it’s a full arm story…
woven with protection, strength, and courage.
Created in presence.
Unfolded in trust.

Thanks Eileen by @sacredtatu
