Hi, thanks for stopping by the blog. My Name is Bram, and I'm a tattooer from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. here are a few new tattoos and photos around the studio from the last few weeks, a few photos from around the province, and a couple shots from the Winnipeg Folk Fest this last weekend.
A well-healed tattoo of a Peregrine Falcon perched on a bollard. Scenes that you may see out the window of your parents car when you were young is a theme I really enjoy, power-lines, blackbirds in the reeds, things like that, I love.
A hummingbird moth for a new client, memories of childhood.
A Red Squirrel.
Great Grey Owl
This is a detail of a full-arm project, I recon we'll complete it in the next month or so. If you have a simple nature theme you'd like to explore in large scale as a tattoo, don't be shy to run your idea by me, I'd be glad to do more large scale stuff.
A cheeky little duck tattoo...
"Photo 51", celebrating women's achievements in science despite men's tendency to act stupid...
A well-healed Swallowtail Butterfly among clusters of flowers, one of my favourite tattoos ever.
Healed Chickadee on a pine bough, another personal favourite.
Prairie Crocuses. I drew this design from life at the Narcisse Snake dens a couple years back, I'm always happy to play with the Prairie Crocus.
If you scroll back in my posts, you'll find a post of "Available designs", showcasing many of the designs I have available to be tattooed. I'm always adding to this collection, and am also happy to make custom tattoos. Email me at bram_adey@hotmail.com with any booking inquiries.
This is my apprentice Myes at work. Her work is inspired by Tradition wester tattooing of the late 19th and early 20th century, Americana and Japanese themes abound, classy, timeless! ladymyesxoxo@gmail.com
My Coworker Doxthrasher doing what they do best, three back-to-back days to make a freehand backpiece for a dedicated old client. doxthrasher@protonmail.com
My coworker Ruth with a little crystal tattoo a few weeks ago, fun, whimsical designs, delicate and light hearted. ruthmtattoo@gmail.com
All of these colour photos were taken at my studio Ritual Winnipeg, I'm so happy with how the studio has shaped up this last year and a half. We have a great little crew who I'm so inspired by and excited to spend my weeks with. Visit our website, www.ritualwinnipeg.com to see everyone's work.

I went and checked out the Spirit Sands with my younger one. It had been a while...
Last summer got gobbled up by having just opened Ritual, so this year I've been really enjoying getting out and about in the province, so much getting out...
Out at the big lake...
On the Brokenhead interpretive trail, the Lady slippers were going off! I've been to this spot a bunch of times, but never in the heat of summer, I was glad we went!
Opapiskaw in the Whiteshell.
Pine Point
One of my favourite places.
Pileated Woodpecker
Red-Sided Garter Snake
Fred Penner
Hurray for the Riff Raff
And my absolute favourite, Gillian Welch
From Downtown...
