Karyme
“ My name is Karyme, I’ve been tattooing professionally since June of 2023. I’ve wanted to be a tattoo artist since the 8th grade. I used to draw on my friends with some cheap eyeliner and and call them my “customers.” Now I’m drawing on people with needles and calling them my clients and friends. I strive to learn and grow everyday, to push myself and see how far I can go. I specialize in black and grey, blackwork, and script, but am determined to broaden my skill set.
I enjoy making connections with my clients and giving them something they will cherish for years to come. This life makes me happy, and I just want to return that to my community. “

Christiana
“ I’ve been doing realism and fine art for as long as I can remember. My oldest sister taught me to draw. Now I specialize in nature inspired realism with an illustrative flare. My art showcases my love of backpacking in the great outdoors. I love getting to know my clients and giving them beautiful work that will be with them for the rest of their lives. “

Katie
"Hi, I’m Katie! I’ve been a dedicated artist for over 10 years, but I knew I wanted to be a tattoo artist since I was 10, after watching Ink Master with my parents. In high school, I explored acrylic painting and even had a piece displayed in an art gallery (though I promise my skills have come a long way since then!).
About six years ago, I shifted to digital art, focusing heavily on anime-inspired designs. My style is vibrant, with bold colors and strong contrasts, and I’m passionate about bringing that energy into my tattoo work. I started my tattoo apprenticeship a year ago, and I’ve been honing my skills in both drawing and tattooing ever since.
I love tattooing because it’s incredible to create art that lives and evolves with my clients—it's a fleeting yet permanent expression, and that’s what fascinates me. If you’re into anime tattoos or bold, colorful designs, I’d love to work with you!"
