“I’m Daniel, a botanical artists in London. I’ve been painting and drawing all of my life. This has always beeen my way of self expression and relating to the world.
I specialise in freehand, large-scale botanical tattooing, working only in black ink. The process allows me to create pieces that are tailored to each body’s shape, respecting and honouring their morphology and giving an organic look.
I fell in love with freehand tattoos from day one. After many years using a stencil I started allowing the shapes and forms to appear on the body organically instead of tracing them. It was a very liberating experience for me and my clients. I finally found a way to approach tattooing that reminds me of the painting process. I love working in a collaborative way with my clients, it makes each piece unique. Adapting my designs to each person’s body, translating their ideas into a one-of-a-kind tattoo is very rewarding.”
