Our Staff Members

Here is some information about our team at Rawhide Tattoo

Tracy Sharman (was Copson)

Proprietor and Award winning Tattoo Artist

Tattooing as an art form has always fascinated Tracy, who has been a professional artist for her entire career. She acquired her first tattoo machines in 1999 and learned the fundamentals from Loz at Altered Images in Bedworth. She has been tattooing for 24 years now!

Her specialty is black and grey realism and portraits of humans or animals. She received an award for best large black and grey work at the 1st Coventry Ink tattoo convention in 2008!

Robyn Bassett

Tattoo Artist

Robyn, an art enthusiast, spent countless hours observing her mother, Tracy, create beautiful tattoos. She briefly worked at Body Art by Design, but the allure of collaborating with her mother in her studio was irresistible. Robyn has been a tattoo artist for 14 years now, with a penchant for vibrant, bold colors and neo-traditional designs. She excels in cover-ups, confidently tackling designs of all sizes.

Dawn Dewis

Award winning tattoo artist

Dawn has been in the tattooing industry for two decades, with the majority of her career spent working side by side with her sister, Tracy. She began her journey at Skins and Needles, then moved to Rawhide with Tracy. After running her own studio in Bournemouth for five years, she’s delighted to be back at Rawhide. Dawn’s expertise lies in fine line black work, floral designs, and mandalas. She has a penchant for feminine designs, particularly dotwork. Her talent was recognized when she won the best individual tattoo at the 2011 Ink and Iron convention.

Lottie Fleming 

Body piercer

Lottie, the newest member of our team here at Rawhide, is our full time body piercer.
Working in the tattoo and body piercing industry has always been an aspiration of Lotties, so she decided to take a leap of faith and pursue a course with the tattoo and piercing academy in Manchester, where she qualified and started her career. She joined Rawhide in January 24 and has since been on a mission to grow and improve the piercing side of our company. Her favourite piercing to do is a dermal but she is adept at all types of piercings.
