They describe their work as a mix of contemporary illustration with influences from nature, tattoo culture and alternative fashion. Boe is self-taught in a range of mediums, starting with watercolour painting at a young age and later finding interest in illustration and needlework. Their artistic goals and aspirations include tattooing and murals. They currently exhibit their work online (boestudios.square.site) and at a range of markets in London.
