At Starlight Tattoo in Auckland, I create colour tattoos that blend meaning, magic, and artistry. Every piece is thoughtfully designed to reflect the person wearing it.
Fresh pohutukawa flower tattoo.New Zealand's native birds come together, celebrating the unique beauty of Aotearoa's wildlife.A guardian angel illuminated by a radiant golden sun, inspired by the timeless traditions of classical painting. The guardian angel has fully healed, while the light reflections on the shoulders and the background are freshly tattooed and will soften as they heal.
I loved creating this custom floral leg tattoo, designed to flow beautifully and become a timeless piece of art.
The fantail pauses amongst ferns and flax. A ghostly osprey keeps his circle, freed from the ground, watching with love, protecting silently, waiting without time.
More than a bird, the Piwakawaka is a symbol that means something different to everyone. I feel honoured to create tattoos that carry those stories and memories.
Fantails perched among tea tree blossoms. A native New Zealand bird tattoo in rich colour.Petals whisper of soft, fleeting beauty.Tui bird in feathered tones. The tui sings secrets into the wind.The story of a star inked in colour and light.Fantails gather in the embrace of the puriri tree.
Fantails and a puriri tree branch, from applying the stencil through the tattooing process to the finished result.
Where whispers gather.A fusion of elegance and blooming resilience.Tulips and forget-me-nots entwined. Some memories bloom forever.A full Japanese sleeve woven with myth and motion.Elegant ornamental florals bloom in graceful harmony.
I loved creating this custom ornamental and floral piece, designed to flow naturally with every curve of the body.
A bunch of forget-me-nots bloom softly across the skin.A marlin bursts through watercolour currents. Born to chase the horizon.Transformation mid-flight.
A 3D monarch butterfly tattoo that appears ready to lift gently from the skin.
A timeless symbol of passion, beauty, and the fire that blooms within.Full space sleeve tattoo. Galaxies, planets, and cosmic elements in radiant ink.Galaxies spiral and stars ignite in this cosmic sleeve.Color-packed galaxy space sleeve with smooth blends and bright highlights for that deep-space glow.A quiet symphony of elegance, fragility, and timeless feminine grace.Octopus in a flowing watercolor style. Fluid movement and vibrant composition.Where colour blooms, imagination follows.Some melodies stay with us long after the music ends.Earth, air, fire and water united in one design, with some areas still fresh as the piece continues to heal.Earth, air, fire, and water converge in this powerful back piece. Elements inked in balance, flow, and ancient force.Neo-traditional flowers and blackwork.Wildflowers bloom where they are free.
