About Phoenix Tattoos-Artwerks

A custom tattoo studio on Tahunanui Drive in Tāhunanui, Nelson, where each design is made around the person rather than picked from flash. The studio works in black and grey, Norse and Viking-inspired designs, dark fantasy, biomechanical work, New Zealand-inspired pieces and original custom work, from small pieces to larger ones. The website says it takes commissions, portraits and digital work too. Free consultations are offered, and clients are invited to bring a rough idea, an old drawing or reference images. The website asks for placement, approximate size, colour or black and grey, and any timing questions when booking. The same artist paints on surfaces including cardboard, canvas, steel, cars and helmets.

The studio sits within a kilometre of one other tattoo studio listed on Open Locally, Tahuna Beach Tattoo Lounge, 0.7 km away, which has 20 reviews and a rating of 4.7. The website describes the studio as clean, calm and expertly inked, with a distinctive style. Customers are not quoted in this description.
