Meet the crew of Squilly Ink.

Sara-Lily Cameron, founder of Squilly Ink, has been tattooing for eight years, with the last four years being in her private studio in Auckland. You may have seen Squilly on TikTok tattooing her own palm, or on Instagram sharing her recent flash.

Squilly has recruited talented local artist Erin Markovina as her tattoo apprentice who now works as a junior artist within Squilly’s private studio.

Squilly’s humble beginnings were as an apprentice under dynamic duo Sophie Priest & Bai Zhao, owners of Good Fortune Tattoo Co. in Epsom, Auckland.

Squilly specialises in neotraditional tattoos for baddies, in both colour and black & grey. Squilly takes classic American Traditional styles, and adds her own modern twist. She is inspired by both Renaissance and modern artists.

In life, Squilly is also known as Sara, or mama to Marlow.

Marlow is Squilly’s beloved daughter, and her apprenticeship will start in approximately 12 years. Stay tuned!
