Botanical tattoo artist in Bristol

Original sketchbook plants, drawn for the body — by Gosia, in Clifton, Bristol.

I'm Gosia, a botanical tattoo artist working from a private studio in Clifton, Bristol. I make botanical tattoos drawn from my own sketchbook — pieces that flow with the body.

My approach

Plants, drawn by hand

Most of my tattoos start as drawings in my sketchbook. They're fantasies about nature — sometimes close to real plants, sometimes a bit stranger, like plants with eyes. I post the originals, and whoever falls for one comes and wears it.

I also design pieces with people. You tell me your idea, we sketch the composition together, and we make it on the day. I care most about how a piece sits on you, and how it grows with your body.

Botanical work covers a lot of ground here — grasses, ferns, wildflowers and more abstract natural forms, fine line through to bolder graphic pieces, in black or colour. Large-scale work that flows with the body — backs, spines, legs — is where I love to spend the time.

Questions

Botanical tattoos — FAQ

Do you only do floral and black work?

Flowers are only one part of it. I do grasses, wildflowers, botanical and more abstract natural forms, fine line through to bolder graphic work, in black or colour. I'm not a classic floral artist.

Can I bring my own idea, or do you only tattoo your own designs?

Both work. A lot of people wear designs straight from my sketchbook, and plenty bring an idea we shape together. Either way, I finish the design on the day so it flows with your body.

Where are you based?

I work from OnePointZero, a private studio in Clifton, Bristol.
