Helen Aldous Artistic & Medical Tattoo

Had fun creating this geometric butterfly yesterday ❤️

Well. Christmas has officially started in the studio now the festive reindeer is out on his shelf 😀

Very Sad to say my Mum passed away yesterday. It was my Mums battle with breast cancer which inspired me to start tattooing permanent 3D Nipples as I felt what was offered to her after her mastectomy wasn’t up to standard. She dealt with the breast cancer very calmly and was an inspiration. Many thanks to my lovely clients who have postponed or swapped around their appointments in the past few days which allowed me to spend time with her. Your support is So much appreciated. Love and light. Hx ❤️❤️❤️

Loved tattooing this jewelled dragonfly on an old friend I haven’t seen for a good 25 years!

There’s been a lot of controversy lately as to whether Bepanthen was still safe to use to heal Tattoos as it may have been reformulated. I suspected this was being put about by companies/people with ‘Tattoo healing creams’ to sell, so I emailed Bepanthen/Bayer directly to get to the bottom of it 🙂 here’s the reply.

Poppy Tattoo by Helen Aldous.

This hot summer has really done the garden good. I’m a great believer in the power of nature to heal body and soul. Love sitting out here with a coffee first thing in the morning.

The model at life drawing last night fell asleep. Bless. 🙂 Digital painting.

So sad to read that Rick Genest, Zombie Boy, has died aged only 32, found dead at his home in Montreal. It seems he comitted suicide. Mental health suppport is so important. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/newsbeat-45055 059

Really enjoyed working on this. Coverup roses with droplets from a few months ago and today we expanded it into a bigger back piece. Thanks Sharon xx #tattoo #holmfirthtattooist #coverup
