Meet the artist
Hi, I’m Clive.
I’ve spent over five years immersed in art — from loose, luminous watercolour painting to the tight linework of engraving — and founded blinc.ink in 2025 to bring that eye for detail to skin.
Every appointment is 1-to-1, unhurried and ego-free. Whether it’s your first tattoo or your fiftieth, you’ll be listened to, looked after and never rushed.

Zero-Ego Tattoos
No cliques, no eye-rolls, no conveyor belt. Just careful, unhurried craft and a room built around you.
No. 01
It Starts With a Conversation
Every design begins with a no-obligation, friendly chat — to understand exactly what you want, answer every question and put your mind at ease. Only then is your piece designed, sized to you and tattooed with bold, high-contrast linework built to age cleanly.
No. 02
Unrushed & Client is Always First
Getting tattooed shouldn't feel intimidating, and your comfort always comes first. We resize and reposition your stencil as many times as needed, pause whenever you want a breather, and tailor the room vibe to you.
No. 03
Exclusive 1-to-1 Focus
Your session is never rushed. Every appointment gets my full, individual attention from the first sketch to the final wrap — no conveyor belt of walk-ins, no clock-watching, just time to get your tattoo exactly right.

5 client testimonials
“Clive was amazing, he was very professional and helped put me at ease. His art work is incredible with amazing attention to detail, his work has such a unique and beautiful style. I get complimented on the piece I recently had done by Clive and will definitely be going back for more. The process was quick and easy and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you again for such an amazing tattoo and the overall experience! I’ll be back soon for another.”
“I sent Clive a picture of a flower in remembrance of my mum and what he came back with was beautiful. When having the tattoo, he made me feel comfortable, chatted throughout, was a real professional, and the tattoo turned out perfect. Will defo recommend to other people.”
“I had a leg piece done by Clive that he had designed himself (hand holding an arrow). He is very down to earth and professional, making the whole process flow. Communication was great when arranging dates, the style and the design itself. It has healed lovely and I shall be wanting more work done by him in the future.”
“I had a lovely lily tattoo done on my arm with a butterfly at the top. Clive was very precise and the tattoo came out very well.”
“Clive was very professional, patient and down to earth. Looking forward to my next project!”
