Frances Anne Faith, wildlife painter and tattooist

Hi, my name is Frances Anne Faith and I am a UK based, wildlife inspired tattooist, illustrator and painter. If you check out my gallery you will see I love to tattoo and paint birds, animals, flowers and wildlife.

Originally from Shropshire and growing up an introvert, I had spent much of my time exploring the surrounding woodland, hunting for insects and any treasures I could find. Not much has changed into adulthood and so my interest in the natural world has stayed with me.

I have a keen interest in British wildlife, especially for our native birds which are the subject for much of my work. I’m not entirely sure what I would call my style but my inspiration mostly comes from 18th-19th century natural history illustrators, Victorian botanicals, vintage children’s books and I’m hugely inspired by idea’s around woodland tales and folklore.

I now reside in Shrewsbury with my partner artist Matt Hunt and our little lurcher, Eric.

I spend most of my time painting from our home studio, working on commissions and tattooing.
