About Arkay's Art Cave

Welcome to Arkay's Art Cave.

This is where I share my dark artwork, tattoo work, and limited collections inspired by horror, fantasy, strange creatures, and the things that refuse to leave my imagination alone.

Everything here starts as an idea, a sketch, or a drawing before finding its way onto skin, clothing, prints, stickers, and whatever else escapes the cave next.

Who is Arkay?

I'm Arkay, an artist and tattooist based in Napier, New Zealand.

I've always enjoyed creating things that are darker, stranger, and full of personality. Whether I'm drawing, designing a tattoo, or building a new Cave Drop, my goal is always the same: create artwork I'd be genuinely excited to own myself.

What You'll Find Here

Arkay's Art Cave brings together everything I create in one place.

You'll find limited Cave Drops, original artwork, prints, tattoo information, and whatever strange ideas make their way out of the cave next.

Some creations will only be available for a short time, while others may become permanent parts of the collection.

The Art Cave Philosophy

I'd rather create fewer things that I'm genuinely proud of than fill the shop with products for the sake of it.

Every Cave Drop is built around original artwork, produced with care, and released when it's ready. That means more time creating and less time chasing trends.

Beyond the Cave

When I'm not working on new artwork, you'll usually find me tattooing, sketching new ideas, or planning whatever strange project comes next.

The Art Cave is always growing, and there's always another idea waiting to escape.

Thank You

Whether you've picked up a sticker, ordered a hoodie, booked a tattoo, or you're simply having a look around, thank you for being here.

Every bit of support helps me keep creating and bringing new ideas to life.
