@trenttattoos

Trent began tattooing in 2010 straight out of high school, starting as a receptionist/apprentice at Beautiful Bodyart, owned by Robyn Hansen. Mentored by artist Dan Clark, he quickly developed a passion for realism, gaining hands-on experience and eventually taking on a full-time role within a year. Since then, Beautiful Bodyart has remained his home base, though he’s also tattooed both nationally and internationally.

Jack Tee is a tattoo artist with 13 years of experience, currently working at Compendium Tattoo in Melbourne. He began his career in a small studio in Melbourne’s western suburbs, learning largely on his own but also being guided by a few key artists, including his close friend and mentor,@insamnia . Jack’s style is Dark Realism, evolving from realism to darker, more intricate designs that he’s passionate about creating. His love for tattoos started young, getting his first at 15!

@lukepritchardtattoo

For as long as Luke can remember he’s always been doing something creative and as soon as soon as he turned 18 he got his first tattoo and then quickly found himself as the kid who was always in the tattoo shop (appointment or not.)
Luke gave up his previous career as a chef and youth worker to begin tattooing in 2012 under @mattblakofficial at Obsession Ink.
Luke is now based in WA and is known for his neo-trad style but loves learning and trying all styles.
