While traveling he was invited to work in countries such as Thailand, Malaysia, America, Honduras, The Cayman Islands and Belgium. While in these countries he worked with many other artists from different cultures, and was able to learn many styles and develop a technique which sees him being able to carry out any style of tattoo.
He returned to the UK a few years later and decided it was time to open his own tattoo studio.
Sacred Ink Tattoo studio Brixton was born in 2006. Since then it has established itself as one of the best tattoo studios in south London. In 2008 Martin decided to get into the Tattoo convention circuit. Since then he has Travelled extensively again due to these events and gets to meet other like-minded artists who just want to Tattoo. This has also increased his wealth of knowledge of executing the perfect tattoo.
The studio has gone from strength to strength right up until 2010 until we had a problem with (yes you guessed right) the Landlord !!!! Sacred Ink had no option but to relocate. So we did. The Studio is now out of Brixton and is now in Herne hill. Directly opposite the main entrance to Brockwell park at 153 Dulwich Road.
Martin has a no nonsense approach when it comes to executing the perfect tattoo. If it won’t look good, it won’t be tattooed. We are not here to nick your money like a lot of studios. The studio is a tattoo studio, nothing more, nothing less. We don’t do haircuts or nail treatments or any other silly gimmicks like selling ice creams to increase revenue. WE DO TATTOOS… and awesome ones at that. The concept of a true tattoo studio should be modifying the body with Tattoos and body piercings.
In 2011 and 2012 Sacred Ink also became a registered Trademark throughout the UK and Europe.
Martin enjoys tattooing, getting tattooed (Yes he is a studio owner that tattoos and has tattoos), painting, traveling and playing the guitar. He is also extremely handsome.
See you soon for some Inking
