Tattoos
These Photos are of recent tattoos that I have made on my clients. I try to be as intuitive as possible when working with my People to make sure they get the piece they want. Meeting in person is a big part of that for me. Contact me in the link above to talk to me about your ideas. thank you for visiting.
 This is a piece in progress! Check back for the finished piece! |  Acrobatics on the broomstick! |  California Poppies, Calla Lillies, and Lupine on this California native living in the PNW. Sprinkler geeks unite! |

 I filled in the gaps on this leg sleeve with waves. There's more above that band too. |  wave fill |  wave fill |

 wave fill |  wave fill |  Fe(lix) already had the raven and I just spiced up the lines a bit to make it a little crisper. Then I added all the fog, castle, rose buds, moon and stars above Raven. Super fun and amazing client! |

 |  Detail of Ms. Brisbee |  This client loves flowers and wanted a delicate piece that was death inspired without looking too grim. Delightful to design and tattoo. |

 I love half dome (who doesn't) and was honored to make this tattoo. I'd love to do more like this. |  Tayah likes dark tattoos with dark subject matter and I felt like I did a great job creating a flip side to Rod Sterling in this tattoo of a woman wearing a plague mask. |  Another shot of The Plague Girl on Tayah's sleeve. |
---|
 Rod Sterling commemorative tattoo on my very reliable baby sitter. Tayah traded me sitting for tattoos and I very nearly completed her left sleeve. |  This is the very back of Tayah's half sleeve, between The Plague Girl and Rod Sterling. |  The inside of Tayah's arm. |

 Tayah's arm |  This piece was so fun for me. I love doing line hatching work. Eilena's friend from collage made this awesome drawing and I made the tattoo. Thank you for sitting so well and trusting me with so much of your body. |  This project was intimidating for me to stencil, but turned out to be way easier to get on than I had imagined in my head. In 3 long sessions we completed this piece. WOW! I'm still obsessed with the way it looks on this incredibly beautiful person. |

 |  Bob had an old tattoo he felt he had grown out of and wanted crows on his arm instead. The left image is the before photo I took. I designed the crows flying across his arm on my IPad in an artistic style as he requested. |  This is the after photo of Bob's arm. This tattoo was made in one session. |

 Ah, Chandler! What a great client. I love doing work for this man. He picks fun stuff and we have a great time collaborating to make these pieces really his own. Thank you again, friend. |  |  |

 This is the healed photo of Candler's tree. |  I loved tattooing this palm on one of my favorite clients. He always brings me fun pieces and is delightful to talk to. I also made the tattoo on his ribs. |  |

 This single session piece was oh so much fun. 8.5 hour sit and one small touch up session 2 days later. I am so in love with the finished product. Chrysanthemums and Day lilies with a Dire wolf skull on the inside arm and honey comb in the ditch. |  |  |
---|
 Dae wanted the moon phases on his lower knuckles and I was happy to tattoo them. Those poor pinkies took a beating. |  This client and her mother love the famous Michelangelo painting and I loved replicating it on her arm! Thanks for the fun! |  |

 Robbie is a mountain woman. She brought a design of endless mountains and I cleaned it up and made it tattooable in the ol IPad. Very interesting person to talk to. |  |  A couple simple sprigs on my dear friend. |

 |  Beautiful rosary, flower and stars memorial piece for her dearly departed family members. I love the stars in this one! |  |

 |  I very much loved tattooing and drawing and chatting with Elizabeth. Fun times! |  |

 This lady brought an image from a comic for me to tattoo on her back. I love the way it turned out. |  I drew these while working at Valor and tattooed them on Rhia this week. A pleasure to tattoo a rose bud sprig. |  Fe(lix) is an awesome person and brought me an image of Queen Anne's Lace (a favorite flower of both of us). He let me talk him into tattooing his armpit. Champion. |

 Tongue in cheeck feminist tattoo. I adore the subject matter. |  This client wanted beautiful black roses. I made this drawing from a photo of roses I liked. This tattoo was made in one session. |  Minimalism. |
---|
 Simply designed on this first timer. She sat so well. The ribs hurt. |  Client supplied this beautiful image to be tattooed on her back. |  Minimalist style mountains look so clean on this lady. |
---|
 This first time tattoo recipient wanted something fiercely woman with sunflowers. She showed me some images she wanted and I put this together for her. She sat through the whole 3 hour tattoo without a break. Tough as nails. Thank you for your trust and awesomeness. |  |  Tyler came to me with a collage of ideas for an America styled half sleeve. This was a one session piece. |
---|
 Minimalism. |  Blackwork minimalism. |  Cherry branch with no flowers in brush style. I love this one. |

 I was supplied with the poem and told to make it real black and abstract. This was super fun. |  This client had some existing flowers tattooed on the upper ribs and wanted a more substantial piece added on and flowing with her body. This tattoo was made in one session. |  Anne feels like the buffalo is her spirit animal at the moment. She also wanted to add a Native American mandala pattern she found in a book. Also, we love space. |
---|
 |  I love these tattoos. Interesting client with awesome reference pictures. She sat like a statue. Thank you! |  This tree tattoo matched in size a small arrow about 2 inches long that was on the other arm. Tones of super tiny dots! Fun work! |

 After a memorable trip to the redwood state park in California, this man came to commemorate the trip with a fairly large tree silhouette. It is a striking image on his leg. |  This walk-in client came with a supplied design, but I had a blast tattooing it. |  This tattoo is so rad to me. I am grateful for awesome friends who get my paintings tattooed on their bodies. I would like to make more largescale work like this! |

 More of Felicity's leg |  My client is an art history buff who adores Georgia O'Keefe. We used the classic painting as a line drawing and I whip shaded to bring it to life on her skin. |  Morgan had a poor quality tattoo covering another tattoo. I had her send me an image of the existing work and "reworked" the design on my ipad then fixed up the design on her leg. |
---|
 This is the start of a fun piece on my friend Nichole. She and I both love Heather McClean's art and we tweaked it a bit do do a coverup on her. Thank you for the fun piece. This piece is based off of the painting by Artist Heather McClean. |  An inspiring quote by the clients father made dainty with mico sized lettering. |  This client wanted black and grey dotwork flowers tattooed down her spine. She gave me free reign and I had a great time. Thanks girl. |
---|
 I did this custom backpiece over an old tattoo and spiced up the butterfly in the corner. Thank you for the fun tattoo. |  |  Tyler wanted a black and grey tiger with clear blue eyes. Tattoo is based on an image he supplied me with. |
---|
 These sisters and their uncle came in and all got variations of the solar system tattoo on their arms. Thank you for sitting well and getting cool stuff, guys! Salude! |  This was not my design, but this little Halloween flash was just too cool to not post up. Thank you for looking! |  Funny Reno tattoo |
