Antony Dickinson

Originally from Cumbria, Ant began his tattooing career in Stirling, Scotland before moving to London and now finding his home in Brighton. With over 20 years of experience, Ant creates timeless tattoos defined by bold lines and a confident, expressive energy.

Influenced by the raw visual culture of skateboarding and punk and blending elements of Western Traditional, Japanese and Black Work tattoo styles, his practice draws deeply from tradition, yet reimagines it into something unmistakably new.

Whether the project is rooted in classic imagery or pushes into experimental territory, Ant’s focus is always on crafting thoughtful tattoos that stand the test of time.
