Jack

A selection of Neo-Thai, Japanese, fine line and old school pieces.

Neo-Thai takes the imagery of traditional Thai art, deities, mythological creatures, temple motifs and the geometry of Sak Yant, and redraws it in a modern, illustrative and bold style. Jack took silver in New School at the Phuket tattoo convention in 2014, and his Neo-Thai work is respected by other artists on the Thai scene. Self-taught, he joined BKK INK in 2024 and also works in Japanese irezumi, fine line and old school, which lets him mix a neo-Thai centrepiece with the rest of a sleeve or a back.

Jack is a self-taught tattoo artist at BKK INK, best known across Thailand for his Neo-Thai work, a style he has made his own. He built his craft on his own, without a formal apprenticeship, on the strength of a distinctive personal vision.

Neo-Thai is his signature, but he is genuinely versatile: he also tattoos Japanese, fine line and old school, moving from a bold traditional piece to a minimal single-needle design within the same craft.

Neo-Thai takes traditional Thai imagery, deities, mythology, Sak Yant motifs and temple iconography, and reimagines it in a bold, modern, illustrative style. It is where Thai heritage meets contemporary tattooing, and it is the work Jack is known for.

Alongside it he covers Japanese (irezumi), fine line and old school, so he can adapt to almost any brief. See related craft on our Sak Yant and Japanese pages.

What makes Neo-Thai hard is respect plus reinvention: the Thai figures and yantra carry real cultural meaning, so modernising them without losing that meaning takes a deep feel for the tradition and a strong illustrative eye. That balance is why Jack has become a reference for the style in Thailand.

Self-taught, he arrived at his signature by pushing his own vision rather than inheriting a house style, which is why his Neo-Thai reads as his, not a copy.

Jack’s value is a rare mix: a signature Neo-Thai style with real reputation in Thailand, plus genuine range across Japanese, fine line and old school. Whether you want a bold Thai piece steeped in meaning or a clean minimal design, he covers it, each built to hold up as it heals and ages.

He tattoos as part of a studio of twelve specialists with 40,000+ tattoos since 2009, every station cleaned to the same sterile, single-use standard.
