Jakey Tatts
Blackwork . Palms . Done Proper
Sydney-based tattooing with precision, care and edge. For blackwork and palm tattoos that last.
What I Do
Whether you're popping in for something quick or booking in for something bigger, I give every piece the time and attention it deserves. Here's how I work:
Blackwork
Clean lines, bold contrast and timeless design. Whether it's your first tattoo or one more in the collection, I focus on clarity, balance and solid work that lasts.

Palm Tattoos
The palm's not for everyone, but if you want it done right, it takes a specific approach. I've built a method that packs the ink deep, holds the line and heals strong. Palms done proper.

See the Work
From first-timers to collectors, every piece is done with care. If it's going on your skin forever it should be built to last.

Real Feedback
Every piece here tells a story. These are a few words from people I've tattooed along the way.
I have been tattooed by Jake many times, and every time has been a blast. He's a friendly face, great communication and great artistic style, whilst also having a fun and easygoing attitude made every appointment a dream.
Have been tattooed by Jake many times, always provided a professional service and created a friendly and comfortable environment. I'd recommend him highly to anyone!
Have had the honour of getting tattooed by Jake only once. Yet it was a wonderful experience! He is gentle, kind and very professional in all aspects. I would recommend anyone to get a tattoo by him any day. I wear my piece with pride every day and am always adding it to my list when people ask the inevitable 'which one is your favourite' question.
I've been tattooed by Jake since he started his journey! The way he has grown and developed his skills not only in his art but the way he treats people throughout the entire process is incredible. I highly recommend Jake as an artist and a safe space for anybody starting to get tattoos or tattoo veterans!
5 years later and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Jake has been my go-to artist not only for the amazing designs, but the company and vibes too! I love being able to throw an idea at him and let him bring it to life, it really makes looking back at each tattoo a little more special knowing the design and the experience are one of a kind.
This guy is my favorite tattoo artist by far offers me honest and insightful opinions on my choices and is so accommodating with his time while taking such care and precision with his work. I usually book in a multiple hours session so I can get the most in, and sometimes I throw in a last minute idea and Jake always accommodates. Love this guy, plus it helps that he plays banging tunes.
Great tattoo artist and even better human, I had the pleasure of having Jake tattoo my sleeve over several weeks and months. Jake made all my ideas come to life and was patient during the process. Can't wait to get more from him and listen to some great tunes while under the needle.
Jake creates such a warm and welcoming environment. He is incredibly skilled and my tattoo has healed perfectly. This was such an enjoyable experience, I can't wait to book in again.
Must have enjoyed it because I keep coming back and sending you all my friends and family.
Jake is incredibly easy to work with and really takes the time to get the details right. You can tell he genuinely cares about the quality of his work and is dedicated to creating tattoos that look great and will last a lifetime. Highly recommend.
