Laura Hyde

Hi, I’m Laura! I like to create art on paper and on people. 

I’ve been doing the latter for around 6 years across the West Midlands, working in a variety of styles including watercolour, illustrative, blackwork, and realism. My favourite pieces to work on are realism portraits of animals, especially more unusual ones – so if anyone wants a portrait of a tapir, you know who to ask 😛

I’ve been vegan for the last 5 years. There was no big epiphany; I just finally realised that I couldn’t eat the creatures I love.

One of my favourite parts of tattooing is meeting new people and having a good ol’ chat with my customers 😀 I give bonus points to any customers who talk to me about their dog(s) and can provide pictures of said dog(s).
