Antony started working in a tattoo studio in Ilfracombe
at the age of 16, whilst also studying art and design. At 18, he went
to University to do his Foundation Art Degree, but travelled back to
Ilfracombe regularly to continue with his training. He was awarded his
tattooing licence in 2003, and continued working to the high standards
of the studio for the next three years. He has since moved, and is now working in Exeter, by appointment, out of the Cover’d Tattoo Studios.
With regard to his work, Antony says…
"All my life I
have been interested in art, and as a tattooist I get to practice art
every day. I love doing designs for people as they’re always unique.
Whether a tattoo is a full back piece or something subtle and small,
it’s a great way for people to express themselves. As a tattoo is for
life, I believe in tattooing to the highest standard and that the
customer should receive exactly what they want."
