TATTOO ARTIST | COSMETIC NATURALISM

I've been an artist all my life. Tattooing has been a part of my every day for over 20 years. While being an artist is a difficult tug-of-war between my inner dreamer and critic, I've grown to love this process a lot. It’s taught me much about the world, and the importance of self expression and individual beauty.

FACES

While I've been trained in different mediums, I found a deep connection to transforming and revitalizing one of the most important parts of our bodies. We communicate, emote, rejoice, cry and smile here.


So much of us is shown in the face.


Facial balancing, restoration of features and boosting confidence that can shine from within are what drives my art.
