Aftercare
You leave knowing exactly how to look after your new tattoo while it heals.

The artist
Ian Walker
Ian is originally from England and has spent years tattooing the Discovery Coast from the little black and white studio on Round Hill Road, Agnes Water, next to 1770.
The Agnes Tattoo Studio name goes back to 2014. Locals, holidaymakers and people passing through on a trip up the coast have all left with his work, and plenty come back for the next one.
He is a fully qualified tattoo artist, happy to fix up a design you already love, work from your own artwork, or draw something from scratch. First timers and nervous clients keep saying the same thing: he made them feel comfortable straight away.

“Ian was so friendly, professional and made me feel at ease straight away, even though it was my 4th tattoo it had been awhile and I was a little nervous. I sent a photo of the tattoo in advance and he had free drawn it fixing it up so it looked amazing. I could not be happier with the end result and if I'm ever in Agnes Water again I will definitely book in with Ian again.”
“Ian is fantastic! He was so accomodating, his work is beautiful and honestly I had the best experience. I got one of my own artworks and one of his designs and couldn’t be happier. Already planning my next tattoos on our next trip to Agnes Water.”
