Tattoo Artist Apprenticeship – Blood Money Tattoo | QLD

Turn Your Passion for Art Into a Career

Blood Money Tattoo is looking for passionate, dedicated and creative individuals who are ready to take the first step towards becoming a professional tattoo artist.

Our 9-month apprenticeship program is designed to give aspiring artists the foundations, studio experience and mentorship needed to develop their skills and build a long-term career in the tattoo industry.

With a strong focus on black & grey realism, you'll progressively develop your skills — from understanding the qualified studio setting and working with clients, through to drawing, design and eventually the technical side of tattooing.

What We're Looking For

We're interested in people who:
Have a genuine passion for tattooing and art
Are hardworking, reliable and committed
Are willing to learn from the ground up
Take direction and feedback positively
Have a strong desire to build a career as a tattoo artist
Understand that becoming a great tattoo artist takes time, patience and dedication
