About
I am Charlie Gates, UK tattoo artist now working out of New York creating dark blackwork, ornamental designs, lettering, cover-ups, and distinctive hand and finger tattoos. My work is shaped by bold contrast, fluid movement, and an eye for unsettling detail. I help clients turn striking ideas into tattoos that feel personal, powerful, and unmistakably their own, whether they are drawn to intricate darkness or a statement piece with lasting presence.
