Hi, welcome to my blog, if you're new here, my name is Bram, and I'm a Winnipeg based tattooer specializing in traditionally inspired black and grey nature tattoos.
I make both custom and flash based work, and my books are always open. If you'd like to set up an appointment to get tattooed, have a consultation, or share an idea for a tattoo you'd like to get, email me at bram_adey@hotmail.com

Amazing work, Bram! I really like how you bring local nature into your black and grey tattoos. The meadowlark, garter snake, and native plant sleeve are all beautiful, and it's great to see both fresh and healed tattoos because they show how well your work lasts over time.
ReplyDeleteI'm also passionate about sharing tattoo inspiration with people. On my website, **Daily Tattoo Ideas**, I publish simple guides and tattoo inspiration to help people discover meaningful designs before they get inked. Your nature-inspired pieces are a great example of the kind of creative work that tattoo lovers enjoy exploring.
Thanks for sharing your latest tattoos and flash designs. Looking forward to seeing more from your *Our Wild World* collection!
