Get To Know ME

Hi Im Benjamin, a passionate & fun loving co-owner of The Grey Heron Tattoo Studio, Derby.

Inspired by the traditions of tattooing but shaped by modernity, my designs often favour bold, bright, illustrative styles with a twist of the surreal. Blending Traditional inspirations with aspects of New School elements. Aiming to balance your personal story/idea with my artistic style, I curate hand drawn bespoke designs for each of my clients.

Graduating with a BA (Hons) In Contemporary Performance Art, I spent my early days immersed in live performance work, freelancing in print, touring as a musician, & even running an eco-conscious tree care company. All of those experiences have shaped my entry into this industry and how I connect with those around me.

So whether you’re looking for something bold, bright & surreal or something more delicate & refined, please get in touch & I would be delighted to see what we can work on together.

All the Best, Benjamin
