AODH — Designs Worth Carrying

AODH is my collection of small symbols, drawings and designs that I think deserve another life — on skin.

Some come from my own carvings, paintings, travels and tattoos. Others have grown from symbols and ideas I've encountered along the way. They are being simplified and adapted with hand-poked tattooing in mind, while trying to preserve the character of the originals.

This isn't a tattoo business. It's an art project and an evolving visual archive.

And ppplllleeeeaaasseee — if you use one of these designs for a tattoo, let me know! Send me a photo if you’re happy to. I'd absolutely love to see where these little marks end up.

I get my own hand-poked tattoos done at Rent’s Handpoke. There’s no collaboration or affiliation — that’s simply where I choose to get mine done.
