Hannah Lightspeed Tattoo Artist
How long have u been tattooing?
I think its about 2 years. I
got into tattooing as I loved getting tattooed myself. I have a masters in
animation but decided to get into fashion. I designed jewellery for
Topman for 3 years, but it was too corporate! I'm not good with authority....
So I got an apprenticeship in a studio in Essex and quit everything, moved back home, and worked my
ass off!
Where do you find inspiration?
In anything and everything! I have an MA in 2d
animation so drawing has been in my life in a major way. Music is a great
inspiration also.
What music do you like listening to while tattooing?
I like cheesy pop punk, or chick rock like crucified Barbara
:)
What is your favorite part of the job?
Making people happy? (Cheesy i know) When you put a
permanent piece of artwork on someone and they love it, or its someones
first tattoo? ? They will remember you always. That's a good feeling! :)
Do you have a favorite/most memorable tattoo?
I tattooed the inside of both of some guys ears, acupuncture
spots... to help his drug and alcohol addiction, it felt like I made a
difference :)
Are you going to be tattooing at any upcoming events?
Yes ill be at The Great British tattoo show in May. Further details of the event can be found below.
