REFERENCE. PRACTICE. REPEAT.

An 82-minute, 25-second recording captures Nat practising on a sheet. The original recording’s camera metadata is dated 6 September 2026.

WHAT THE FOOTAGE SHOWS.

Nat checks the reference, makes repeated passes, wipes the sheet and continues working. The recording ends while she is still practising, so there is no clear finished-piece reveal.

Source: Nat’s existing practice recording. No claim of professional competence or tattoo services.
