Apprentice Tattoo Artist romford studio
We are seeking enthusiastic apprentice tattoo artists to train across our Essex studios.
Apprenticeship opportunities are available at Urban Ink for passionate people who are able to demonstrate a positive attitude to learning, along with a love of art and a promising portfolio.
We view our apprentices as an integral part of our business and as future feature artists, therefore we will teach you how to work safely and correctly, for yourself and others, with the correct cross-contamination principles and an understanding of blood borne pathogens. You will be taught to practice to the highest health and hygiene standards. Learning the art of tattooing isn’t a one size fits all, we take a personal approach to ensure all of our artists understand and are competent in the fundamentals of all techniques that produce an outstanding tattoo artist. Once you are competent in the basics you will be given the opportunity to specialise, however we do expect all apprentices to master the fundamentals of all practices to a good standard so that they can undertake any tattoo independently.
