Sometimes it's a long way around to get where you are going.

Sometimes it's a long way around to get where you are going.

I started printing cyanotypes in 2014, & was instantly in love with the process, the chemistry & the gorgeous results I was getting. Having worked as a photographer for many years I found that printing images was as satisfying as trying to capture them.

After a few years of learning how to make prints with screens & dyes, I opened a  proper shop in 2018, closed during the pandemic & reopened a smaller yet mightier place to print in 2021.

Selling lots of UV dye prints during the pandemic in small street booths setup on weekends was my cue to expand & start making screen prints for bands and business as well as start showing my own works.

In 2026 I've added a few tricks to my arsenal of printing & have started offering them here on Tattees.co. I hope you find something unusual & wonderful that will bring you years of enjoyment.
