The Intuitive artist
Hey, I’m Charlotte, and I’m glad you found me. Creativity has always been a huge part of who I am. Even though I didn’t leave school with traditional qualifications, I was always drawn to making things with my hands and expressing myself through art. Before finding tattooing, I explored many different paths and careers. Eventually I found myself working in the beauty industry, where I fell in love with the more artistic side of the work — intricate nail art, detailed design, and special effects makeup. Anything that allowed me to create and bring ideas to life lit something up inside me. But tattooing had always been in the background. I started getting tattooed when I was 17 and quickly fell in love with the culture and the craft. There was something powerful about it — the way tattooing allows people to mark moments in their lives, express who they are, and carry meaningful artwork with them forever.
What is the Intuitive Tattoo Course?
The Intuitive Tattoo Course is a mindful introduction to the art of tattooing, created for those
who feel called to the craft with intention and curiosity. Designed to guide students through
the foundations of tattooing in a thoughtful and supportive way, the course combines
essential technical skills with a deeper awareness of the experience shared between artist
and client.
Over six months, students explore the practical elements of tattooing — from equipment,
hygiene, and fine line techniques to working with clients and developing their own artistic
style. Alongside this, the course introduces a trauma-informed approach to tattooing,
recognising that many tattoos hold personal meaning and emotional significance. Students
learn how to create calm, respectful environments, hold space for clients with care, and
approach the craft with empathy and professionalism.
The course also explores the business side of tattooing through a mindful lens. Rather than
focusing solely on growth or popularity, students are encouraged to build an aligned tattoo
practice — one rooted in authenticity, sustainability, and genuine connection. This includes
guidance on showing up authentically on social media, attracting the right clients, and
developing a career that supports both creativity and wellbeing.
The Intuitive Tattoo Course offers more than just technical training; it is an invitation to
approach tattooing as a craft shaped by presence, respect, and intention.
If you feel drawn to learning the art of tattooing in a calm, thoughtful and mindful way, the
Intuitive Tattoo Course invites you to begin that journey.

A Little More About Me
Motherhood has been one of the most profound parts of my journey and the place where my spiritual practice really began to take shape. Becoming a mother encouraged me to slow down, become more present, and pay closer attention to the rhythms of everyday life. It taught me the importance of creating space for what truly matters.
Over time I’ve learned to weave small rituals into my daily life moments of reflection, gratitude, and intention that help keep me grounded in both my work and my personal life. It has also taught me the power of setting boundaries and learning to say no when something no longer feels aligned, allowing me to protect my energy and focus on the things that feel meaningful.
An Invitation to Begin
Tattooing is a craft that asks for patience, curiosity, and respect. It’s a journey that unfolds over time, shaped by practice, creativity, and the connections we make along the way.
If you feel drawn to learning the art of tattooing in a thoughtful and intentional way, the Intuitive Tattoo Course is an invitation to begin that journey. I would be honoured to guide you through the first steps.
What fills my cup?
My husband and children are at the heart of everything I do and bring so much joy and grounding to my life. I find deep fulfilment in creating art, building meaningful connections with others, and nurturing a sense of community both inside and outside the studio.
My faith and spiritual practice continue to guide me, helping me stay present and intentional in my work and daily life. And somewhere in the background, you’ll almost always find a little country music playing too.

Before You Apply
The Intuitive Tattoo Course has been designed for those who feel genuinely drawn to the
craft of tattooing and are willing to approach it with patience, curiosity, and respect.
Tattooing is a lifelong practice that requires time, dedication, and responsibility. This course
is intended for individuals who are ready to learn the foundations thoughtfully, develop their skills gradually, and approach the work with care for both the art and the people they will eventually tattoo.
Because of this, the course may not be the right fit for those looking for a quick or guaranteed route into the tattoo industry. Instead, it is best suited to creative individuals who feel connected to the mindful and intentional approach that sits at the heart of this course.
If this philosophy resonates with you, I would be honoured to welcome you into the Intuitive Tattoo Course and guide you through the beginning of your journey as an artist.
