The studio

A quiet room, after hours

Oracle Ink is a private tattoo studio in the village of Tolleshunt D'Arcy, near Maldon in Essex. It is home to Dan Milton, who tattoos here one to one, away from the noise of a busy high street shop.

There are no walk-ins and no queues. Every appointment is booked ahead, held in the evenings and at weekends, so you have the room and Dan's full attention for your piece.

Just you, the machine and the idea you came in with.
