About Tattoo Design
My Style in Tattoo Design
I work somewhere between the seen and the unseen - my tattoos are all about blending nature, symbols, and a bit of surreal weirdness. My thing is black and white line work, packed with detail. Most designs start as pencil sketches, then I go in with pens, dotwork, and plenty of patience till it feels just right.
What You’ll Find in My Art
- Surreal tattoo art with eyes, skulls, mushrooms, and strange roots - sometimes it’s pure trippy, sometimes more spiritual.
- Mythological tattoo motifs - dragons, winged serpents, and strong feminine deities.
- Nature-inspired tattoo sketches - feathers, sunflowers, old trees, the works.
- Everything I do is hand-drawn – no quick digital shortcuts, just me, my sketchbook, and a bunch of fineliners.
How We Can Work Together
- Got a story or a symbol that means a lot? I’ll turn it into a custom symbolic tattoo, mixing your ideas with my style.
- If you want something ready-made, I have a bunch of my own flash designs you can choose from.
Heads Up
Right now, I focus on making the tattoo design itself - I’m still learning to tattoo on skin (that first try, ha, my hands were shaking like crazy). So for now, I’ll give you the art and you can take it to your favourite tattoo artist.

My Story
Hey, I’m Ankita. My life kinda spills into my art - messy, bold, a bit wild. I sketch, paint, tattoo, sometimes on walls in freezing mountains, sometimes on paper, sometimes on skin (yup, I tried tattooing and my hand shook like crazy). Lost my phone once - lost all my process videos. Felt like losing a piece of myself, honestly. But what stays is me, my weird ideas, and the joy of making something out of nothing.
My Work
Custom Art & Tattoos - I do feminine ink illustration, surreal tattoo design, and digital art. You want a print, a tattoo concept, or a wall piece? I’m your person.
Freehand Wall Murals - I paint stories on walls - cafes, homes, hostels. All freehand, from majestic wolves to abstract Buddha mural.
Tattoo Design Concepts - I create detailed tattoo concepts, mostly in my own abstract style. DM me your story, I’ll sketch you a version.
