Originally from Manchester, England, Luke moved to the west of Ireland at the age of 11. As a naturally shy and introspective child, he found his voice through drawing and creativity from an early age. With an artist for a mother, art was woven into the fabric of his upbringing—something that would later feel like fate when he discovered the world of tattooing. Luke often credits his mum for being the constant source of support and inspiration during his younger, more unfocused years. Her encouragement played a pivotal role in keeping him grounded and driven toward his passion.

Luke began his tattooing journey the moment he left school in 2013, diving straight into a full-time apprenticeship. Over a decade later, his passion and obsession for tattooing remain as intense as ever. Through years of dedication, he’s developed a distinctive style marked by a striking mix of bold and fine lines, often incorporating generous use of white ink to bring contrast and depth to his designs. His work consistently stands out for its precision, creativity, and individuality.

Now a proud member of the Mad Circus team, Luke chose to join the studio to surround himself with equally passionate and talented artists. Always pushing his craft forward, he continues to expand his artistic repertoire, drawing inspiration from those around him while staying true to the vision that started it all.
