We have a team of artists working at Doc Black Ink, all of whom are highly skilled, experienced, and dedicated to their art. Tattooing is not a job for someone who doesn’t care, it’s a vocation.

Our artists have a range of different experiences and backgrounds, styles and inspirations. We strongly recommend browsing the examples of work on this site and then getting in touch to chat with the artist whose work speaks to you. We’ll work together to come up with the perfect design for you.

ART THAT REFLECTS INDIVIDUALITY

Every tattoo has the power to become a personal work of art that reflects individual style and creativity. At Doc Black Ink, we create every piece with careful attention to composition and detail. This approach creates artwork that complements the body and stays true to each client's vision, resulting in a piece that carries meaning for years to come. As a trusted tattoo parlour, our focus is on creating original artwork inspired by the person wearing it. Our skilled body artists transform ideas into unique tattoos that celebrate individuality, giving every client a design that feels personal and unlike any other.

ART CREATED WITH CARE

Creating exceptional tattoos needs more than artistic ability. It also requires consistent cleanliness and professional working practices throughout every appointment. This is why we make sure to maintain a hygienic environment and use proper sterilisation procedures in each session for a positive experience and high standards of tattooing.

 

At Doc Black Ink, we approach every step of the process with care, discussing designs and giving clear aftercare guidance once the session is complete. Clients visiting our tattoo studio in Newcastle upon Tyne can feel confident knowing that we are as professional as we are creative. If you would like to learn more about the tattoo process or discuss your next idea, connect with us, and our team will be happy to help.
