Hannya Jayne
Hannya has been tattooing full time in studios since 2010
The first tattoo she made was 19 years ago.
"My work is best described as bold & unapologetic."
Hannya spent the first 5 years of tattooing in a busy walk-in studio.
From then on working in predominantly appointment only studios she was able to work on custom designs focusing on her signature illustrative style.
"I absolutely love tattooing brushstroke/illustrative mandalas.
This style came into being from combining my love of geometric designs and my brushstroke/illustrative style of tattooing".

Commonly known as Handpoke Tattoos, Machine Free Tattoos & Stick n' Poke Tattoos.
Hannya's style of handpoke tattoos are similar to her machine tattooing, Bold.
The traditional methods of tattooing by various cultures, spanning thousands of years is something Hannya is passionate about.
Her available designs are very much inspired by Traditional Tattooing of Papua New Guinea and Berber Tattooing of North Africa.

Aside from the style of Hannya's handpoke tattoos, we think that even though she hasn't dedicated herself to solely tattooing by hand, her knowledge and experience tattooing for so many years sets her apart from many other handpoke artists out there.
If we do say so ourselves.
