Andy Barber is the owner of the studio. He has
been tattooing for 20 years and has a wealth
of experience in creating the highest quality
innovative tattoos. Over the years he has attended
many conventions and won a vast array of awards
for his work in many different styles. Andy
is renowned for his oriental style work, cover-ups
and reworks. All styles are catered for, from
the brightest boldest colour to tribal, Celtic,
Maori, black 'n' grey, and from custom work
to off the wall designs, there are just too
many to mention.
Andy has been working in this studio since 1984 when he completed his apprenticeship with Rob Robinson, who was the previous owner but has now retired. He also worked at Jock's at Kings Cross and with Ian Frost in Croydon before taking over this studio in October 1993. In 2003 he expanded the studio and did a refit to the whole studio. The result is what you see today.
Andy is a member of the APTA, TCGB, BTAF and the Guild of Master Craftsmen. He assisted the London Borough of Merton with the proposals of the byelaws which are now used for Health and Safety in the operation of a modern tattoo studio in the SW London area. |
