Over The Years We Have Featured Many Tattoo Artists,

but very few have used UV ink,

but here is one that does,

photographs UK-born tattoo artist Jonny Hall,

under normal light the UV aspect is invisible,

but go to a disco or venue that uses UV light, and the tattoos really stand out,

UV-reactive ink is a bit more difficult to work with than normal tattoo ink, because it’s a lot thinner, but John has mastered the technique to produce stunning tattoos,

at the age of 23, he left his native UK and settled in Australia, where he started his apprenticeship as a tattoo artist in 2015, “The process is pretty much the same as a normal realism tattoo,” Hall said about UVealism, a term coined by Hall himself, “The UV reactive nature of the tattoo makes it come to life under a black light. The healing process is exactly the same as a typical tattoo. The tattoo is wrapped for the first 24 hours, then aired out, cleaned, and moisturized daily. After a week or two, the skin will be totally settled.”

like them or loath them in UV light these tattoos certainly stand out!
