Interior photo of a photo studio with a white backdrop, track lighting on the ceiling, large window on the left, and minimalist decor.

You already know what you want to say. You just haven't found the artist who can say it the way you feel it.

At Shadow Inks, every piece starts where most artists stop — in the meaning behind it. Whether it's realism that stops people cold, illustration that tells a story only you understand, or a design so uniquely yours it could never exist on anyone else's skin.

This isn't a walk-in shop. This is fine art. On you. Forever.

Small & Considered

Small scale · Single session · Scripts, line work & minimalist designs

Fine scripts, clean line work, minimalist forms and small ornamental pieces. Precision and longevity over size. Portraits and realism do not live in this tier.


Three-Quarter Panel

Forearm or calf · Up to 10×5 in · Medium detail, some colour

Three-quarter coverage of a forearm or calf — roughly 4×6 up to 10×5 inches. Medium detail, selective colour, and real compositional presence. Portraiture and realism enter the conversation here.

Full Panels & Cover-Ups

Upper arm · Leg panels · Cover-up work · Multi-session from here

Upper arms, full leg panels, and cover-up projects start here. Cover-ups require additional planning and layering — assessed individually. Multi-session work typically begins at this scale.

Full Day Session

10am – 5pm · Lunch included · Sleeves, backs & chest pieces

A full day dedicated to your piece — no rushing, no compromise. The foundation of all major work: sleeves, backs, chest compositions. Large projects are quoted as a number of full day sessions.
