About me and my studio

Experienced Tattoo Artist

Dark Anatomy Tattoo | Longton, Preston

Hi, I’m Norby, the artist behind Dark Anatomy Tattoo.

My tattoo journey began in 1997, and I’ve been working professionally in tattoo studios since 2009.

Over the years, I’ve developed my own distinctive artistic approach, combining creativity, experience and a genuine passion for tattooing.

I specialise in dark illustrative tattoos, blackwork and custom designs, but I also enjoy exploring a wide range of styles, with a particular passion for freehand projects and watercolour tattoos.

I particularly love creating larger, detailed pieces, although every tattoo, big or small, deserves the same care and attention.

What I Have to Offer

A friendly, relaxed and professional environment where quality, cleanliness and attention to detail always come first.

I believe every tattoo should be as individual as the person wearing it. Whether you have a clear vision or just the beginning of an idea, I’m always happy to help bring it to life.

More than ink. It’s a story.

ARTISTIC STYLES & SPECIALITIES

Creativity Without Limits

Tattooing is more than a technique. It’s a form of artistic expression, where creativity, individuality and attention to detail come together.

I enjoy exploring a wide range of styles, from bold, detailed compositions to delicate, flowing designs.

My specialities include:

• Stylised Realism – Colour and black & grey.
• Watercolour – Expressive, vibrant and fluid designs.
• Freehand & Sketchwork – Organic, artistic and unique.
• Fine Line & Minimalism – Delicate, clean and elegant.
• Blackwork & Dotwork – Bold contrasts and intricate details.
• Abstract & Illustrative – Creative, distinctive and unconventional.

WHERE ART MEETS SKIN

Freehand and sketchwork are particularly close to my heart. I love creating designs that flow naturally with the body, bringing artistic freedom and individuality to every piece.

Whether you have a clear vision or just an idea, I’m always happy to explore possibilities and create something personal to you.

Your idea. My creativity. Something uniquely yours.
