Andrew May

Andrew May is a 24-year old London-based tattoo artist who grew up in Devon. Having a somewhat solitary childhood, May found escape through drawing. By the time he made it to A-levels he was focusing only on fine art and sculpture. When university time rolled around the opportunity opened to become a receptionist in a local tattoo parlour. He decided to take it, figuring that if it didnt work out he could call it a gap year and head to uni. Fortunately it did work out soon enough Andy opened his own parlour in Devon. Just over a year ago the opportunity presented itself to come to London and work at Shoreditch based Shangri-la Tattoo Parlour, so Andy grabbed it and the rest is history. Andys style is a self-described mixture of the three main traditional styles (Western, Japanese and tribal) combined with his own energy.
