Hi, I’m Dani. I’ve been tattooing for over five years, four of them in Berlin. My work is mainly organic ornamental blackwork, combining flowing linework with delicate dotwork and shapes that follow the natural form of the body.
My ornamental tattoos often have a soft and feminine feeling, but the same style can also become bolder and more powerful depending on the person and the project. I like keeping my work open and evolving instead of limiting it to one fixed look. Body flow is an important part of my designs, and I want every tattoo to feel natural in its placement.
Art has always been part of my life, but I only found the confidence to take it seriously later. Around six years ago, while travelling, I started drawing again with pen and paper. Without pressure or expectations, I slowly developed my own visual language, and that eventually brought me into tattooing.
Dotwork is still one of my favourite techniques. I enjoy the slow and focused process, especially when it is combined with clean linework and blackwork to create depth and texture.
I also really enjoy custom tattoo projects and working together with clients from the first idea to the final design. For me, tattooing is not only about the finished piece. Trust, comfort and communication during the session matter just as much. I want people to feel comfortable in the studio, enjoy the process and leave happy with a tattoo that feels personal to them.
