How would you describe your art style?

 My style has always been pretty feminine and detail oriented. I love any chance I get to paint and tattoo floral or ornamental designs. Although I mainly tattoo in black, my paintings are always extremely colorful.

What is your typical process when coming up with a new design? Is there a source of inspiration you tend to draw from?

 I love to save photos of anything and everything I can use as inspiration for later. I’m always stopping to take photos of intricate architecture or flowers on the street. When it’s time to sit and work on a new design, I’ll dig through my inspiration album and piece something together from at least 4 or 5 different sources.

What is your favorite piece you’ve done and why?

 It’s always so hard to choose a favorite, I feel like all artists will say the same. Every time I do a new tattoo or a new painting that I’m especially proud of, it instantly becomes my new favorite. But I recently painted a huge mandala mural on a wall at the shop I’m based out of, Grit N Glory, and I absolutely love staring at that thing everyday. It’s easily one of my most cherished projects.

What inspired you to pursue a career in the arts?

 My love for art started in middle school and just took off from there. I went to an art specialized high school then an art college of course. I studied fine art in school but discovered tattooing later on in my early twenties. A few of my friends had started tattooing and were pushing me to try it out, I picked up a tattoo machine and never put it down.
