Watercolor Cardinal Then and Now
This piece showcases an 11-year 'then and now' comparison of a watercolor tattoo on my upper back. It was done in 2014 and, while showing some fading on the cardinal and background, I still love it and plan a touch-up.
Epic Dragon Chest Piece
After 90 hours of work, my dragon chest piece is 'finished', though we'll revisit it for touch-ups after healing. It represents my strength and resilience.
Blackout Sleeve Rework Triumph
I reworked Meg's poorly done blackout sleeve, transforming it into a powerful statement of my artistry. The before and after shots showcase the dramatic improvement and dedication to my craft.
First Tattoo Together
My partner got her first tattoo today, and I'm so proud of her for taking the leap! We went to Fleshworks in Olympia, WA, and Sammy did an amazing job. It was a really special experience for us to share.
Microrealism Oni Mask
This Oni mask tattoo is a stunning example of microrealism and fineline work. It represents protection and strength, a powerful symbol etched into my skin.
First Italian Ink Memory
This is the beginning of my tattoo journey, inspired by my travels through Italy. I got this piece in Porcia, Italy, as a reminder of the incredible experiences and beauty I encountered.
