Where Art Meets Soul and Every Mark Tells a Story

Crafting Creativity, One Bold Step at a Time

About Us

Primal Ink Art Collective has been a cornerstone of creativity and craftsmanship in Armagh since 2009. Founded by award-winning tattoo artist Ritchie Connor, our studio quickly became a trusted destination for bold, meaningful body art. In 2025, we expanded to Lismore, County Waterford, bringing our passion for ink and artistry to even more people.

Our collective is made up of talented artists and creators who bring their own unique skills and visions to the table. Natasha, from Dragons Fire Photography, has been professionally capturing moments since 2020. She focuses on discovering beauty in every second and freezing it forever in her stunning images.

Natasza joined us as an apprentice and, after four years honing her craft, proudly completed her apprenticeship last year. Her tattoo work blends precision with creativity, continuing our tradition of excellence.

Alex, from Divine Modification, has been piercing since 2012, offering everything from basic to advanced piercings with skill and care.

Beyond art on skin, we craft and print our own vinyl designs on t-shirts, hoodies, and more—wearable expressions of our creativity. We also make our own all-natural aftercare creams and cleaning foam, ensuring that your tattoo and piercing care is just as thoughtful as the work itself.

We offer free consultations to help every client get the most out of their experience with us—whether you’re booking a tattoo, piercing, photoshoot, or exploring our custom products.

At Primal Ink Art Collective, it’s all about passion, creativity, and bringing your unique vision to life.
