There's is an electric blue background with blue highlights throughout the tattoo. It's unfinished, but doesn't have much left to be finished.

Am I currently obsessed with KPop Demon Hunters? Yes. Do I plan to make flash sheets of this month’s special interest?

Hello Bluesky! I’m a queer tattoo artist based in Hailsham, UK and with pride month coming up, I want to make as many designs as possible, loud and subtle, funny and serious, to fit the average and lower budgets. What would you like to see? What would you want to get? I need inspiration ❤️

So this week, myself and my colleague did some special training to learn how to do realistic nipple and areola tattoos to help people who have undergone mastectomys or gender affirming top surgery! It's been an absolute honour, and I'm so proud to be able to offer this service free of charge!

A certificate that reads:
The Avalon Rooms
This is to certify that Raiven Elizabeth Barnard has completed the 3d realism nippe & areola course with "Flick" Felicity Denham Vtct
Senior Piercer, cosmetic and medical tattoo artist
Date: 18.02.2025

Look at this super fun one I did recently for Daisy! These were actually two separate bits of flash art I drew that she wanted to put together, I never would have thought of it!

A photo of a tattoo on a pale leg.

The tattoo is two introcate sacred hearts, in the top heart is a skull, with smoke coming out of the top of the heart.

In the bottom heart is a ribcage, with some fillagree and jewel decoration along the bottom of the heart. The whole thing is in black and grey ink.

Hello! I'm Raiven! I'm based in Hailsham, East Sussex and I bring lots of colourful, bright tattoos to the table! Whilst colourful and bright are my favourite things to do, I also love to do the gothic and the dainty! 💕💕 I've been tattooing since late 2017, but only full time since early 2021!

A 9 photo grid, with the centre pictue being a picture of myself with short curly hair.

The other images are tattoos I've done, a black and grey fox, a purple d20 surrounded by blue flame, a blackwork centipede, a watercolour style Shenmue sleeve, a sexy mushroom headed pinup girl, an intricate dotwork mandala, deadpool and a closeup of a Sailormoon sleeve.
