Mel is a blackwork tattoo artist whose style thrives on contrast, negative space, and striking detail. Whether through bold whip shading or delicate fine line techniques, her work balances edge and elegance—perfect for those drawn to minimalism, symbolism, or surreal visual storytelling.
Originally from Italy and shaped by years spent between the art-filled calm of her homeland and the raw, urban energy of London, Mel draws deep inspiration from opposites. Her imagination is fed by sci-fi films, historical biographies, and the natural world—especially flora and fauna—which often surface subtly in her work.
Mel is deeply intentional in her process, creating tattoos that not only resonate visually but are delivered with kindness, patience, and care. For clients who value a thoughtful, grounded experience with an artist who listens, Mel brings both artistry and empathy to every piece.
