(but not in a creepy way, please…)

Hi! I’m Joanne, and I have been professionally tattooing since 2012. As of 2026 I’m based in Leicester city centre at my private tattoo studio Athamé. I am only able to accommodate pre booked appointments via my booking form.
I explored many styles early on, but over time I refined my craft to specialise in black work especially fine line, dot work, and illustration styles. I thrive on detailed challenges and intricate designs, developing a style that comes naturally to me and reflects what I truly love creating.
My work includes mandalas and patterns, flora and fauna as well as, ornamental, geometric and henna-inspired designs. I absolutely love dark and macabre designs too! I blend with a mix of dot shading, soft shade, line shade and solid black to give each piece a distinctive, textured and unique finish.
Tattooing is my passion, alongside drawing and creating. With a background in fine art and years in customer service, I focus on delivering not only strong artwork but also a comfortable, positive experience for every client.
