Hi I’m Rhys Thomas, I’m a Cancer born in ‘78’

I’ve made my living for the 7 years as a self taught tattooer, 

I’m currently tattooing in the beautiful harbour city of Wellington New Zealand.

My interest/influence in tattooing/tattoos started in the 90s secretively going to the local book store & sneaking a look at tat mags & of course Thrasher magazine. I grew up in a small town where there wasn’t a lot to do but skate & surf. 

My tattoo style is a mix of real reference, western traditional & modern day blackwork style.
