WHO i Am

My name is Gareth Doye, and I have been tattooing for over 15 years.

My portfolio can help you visualize what I enjoy tattooing and hopefully will persuade you to get that next tattoo from me.

I grew up in small town South Africa, often moving around and had quite a tumultuous youth where I was allowed far too much freedom and ended up getting into trouble in my teenage years, and then in my early-mid 20’s I found tattooing, or maybe it found me, I am still figuring that one out. The rest as they say is history, I have owned 4 tattoo studios, three in Cape Town, South Africa and one in Copenhagen, Denmark.

I also enjoy cutting lino and making prints, or you can find me making cool T-shirts, in my actual spare time I love going to the beach or hiking in some of Cape Towns spectacular landscapes, usually with my blind pooch, Love.
