Friday Jones is the only artist in the world with an EGOT client list, having inked Lorraine Bracco (Emmy), Aaron Neville (Grammy), Angelina Jolie (Oscar), and Lena Hall (Tony). Her work has graced Robbie Williams’ Escapology album cover and she’s performed secret favors for Penélope Cruz and Uma Thurman. She’s captured the imaginations of tech-art pioneers like American McGee and Kenny Schachter and decorated BBC darling Cerys Matthews.
Diplomats? Check.
Trailblazing accomplishments? She legalized tattooing in Montenegro (because why not?) and spearheaded the Marks of Protection campaign, celebrating 15th-century Balkan resistance tattoos while raising awareness about modern slavery.
Last year, Friday trained nurse practitioners from world class hospitals like NYU Langone, Georgetown University, and the Texas Medical Center in post-op tattooing techniques, blending artistry with healing. Her creative vision expands into fine art, as her Marks of Protection painting series, including the fiery debut Vrata, garnered buzz at Art Basel Miami. The accompanying photo series is set to debut at the World Economic Forum with Art Talk Magazine.
A mystic at heart, Friday’s recent collaboration with astrologer Holiday Mathis explored Jungian themes, hinting at the spiritual depth she’s weaving into her future projects. From tattoos to canvases, her work continues to make indelible marks—on skin, in galleries, and across the global stage.
