If this keeps pulling at you

You might have been thinking about this for years.

You want something of your own. A skill you're proud of. Work that feels rewarding. A business that fits around your life, rather than the other way around.

And maybe that's why this idea hasn't left you alone.

Meet your teacher

I've been exactly where you are.

Fine line artist · Founder of Petite Ink · 300+ women trained

For years, I thought tattooing was something other people did. People who were naturally artistic, more confident, younger, in an apprenticeship. I couldn't have been more wrong.

I started with no tattoo experience, two children at home and plenty of self-doubt. Today, I've trained more than 300 women to build skills, confidence and careers they never thought were possible for them either.
