back on my bull… or whatever the saying is.
#bulltattoo #cttattooartist #blackandgreytattoo #femaletattooartist #backtattoo
we spent 7 hours tattooing this bull & about two hours designing his full back before we started tattooing, so we had a long day but it was so worth it! can’t wait to continue working on this piece so i can show you all the full design!

when things feel stagnant, it’s a good time to review the playbook. my daily goal is to be better than yesterday’s best. that said, i’d love to do some animals like this on some real people. i loved working on this so much. it took a total of 5 hours.

i never get tired of roses 🌹 always grateful to my clients who give me such precious real estate on their bodies.

i know instagram is supposed to be a highlight reel or whatever. but we keep it real over here & i’m a firm believer that everything happens for us and not to us. accidents happen and then you get back to the work 🫶🏽 i’m just grateful to be safe and continue to run my race. this same day i got to work on some of my favorite faces to tattoo. the key is to remain steady and faithful through the highs and lows. after all, i’ve never lost anything that i was meant to keep 💋

i love roses and i had a lot of fun with this one. the reference for this rose happened to be a rose i drew in 2019, before i started tattooing. you never know what you’re doing something for ultimately. it’s beautiful to see it on someone now. every moment has its purpose even if it’s not clear to you yet 🌹 more roses please

i say this all the time and i’ll say it again; i am so grateful for clients that become friends, who i can be my fullest, most chatty, most joyful self around. shout out to Allesandra for being one of those special people, & for being being tough af, falling asleep while i stab her elbow.
for me, the best part of this job, apart from the art itself, is the stories. from the storytelling involved in designing thoughtful & meaningful imagery that feels uniquely tailored to the needs of the person in front of me, to the stories we share while we’re working, to the way we become woven into the fabric of each other’s stories after that day. there’s an intimacy and a connection in this work that is never lost on me. community is so precious. thank you so much 🤍

every pretty picture deserves a pretty frame. these realistic crows were done entirely with a machine. we created a custom shape for her based on her facial features and her preferences. once healed she’ll come back in and we’ll make any necessary adjustments. i’m so thrilled with how these came out. #ladytattooer #browtransformation #browtattoo
sometimes you have an epiphany and you get a cover up 🤍 i love tattooing flowers. neck tattoos for everyone ! who’s next?
i loved making this freehand rosary for Paola. sometimes the best way to make something flow w the body is to draw it on.
had a sweet sentimental little birthday. back to reality today so here’s me, my art, and a few things it took me 33 years to learn:
you are defined by the love you give not the love you receive. a true giver can never be “used” or taken advantage of. no one can get over on you when you’re the source, you are literally made of love. it’s your super power.
that being said, it’s your job to assess people’s capacity to reciprocate your energy before you start offering yourself up. it’s okay to stay sweet, just have the discernment to see the difference between bees and flies. this will save you lots of time.
intention and impact are two different things. be self aware. stay accountable. we owe that to one another. relationships of any kind require effort. gentle confrontation led by curiosity is your friend. speak up, a simple conversation can be so healing. life is to short not to love on your people or to stay angry over petty things.
it’s okay to revoke access to you whenever that makes sense for you. no one is entitled to space in your life, let people fumble you. consider yourself first or no one will think they should. don’t take things personally. we all have things we carry.
life is too short to not be living how you like. but life is long enough for you to figure it out. start over a thousand times if you need to. you are never stuck. you are never lost. stay curious about everything.
befriend your grief and let it change you for the better. pain is a portal. it’s alchemy. make art that you enjoy. be unapologetically, fearlessly, you, that’s how your people will find you.
you just get one body in this life time, take care of it and it’ll take care of you. changes made out of self love are more sustainable than those made out of self loathing. fall in love with systems and the process of becoming. the real beauty is how you move in the world, not what you look like. lastly, for the best sleep, always try your best everyday.
and if you got this far, i love you. thank you for giving me space to yap. i so appreciate every birthday wish. my only wish for my birthday is that i keep getting the opportunity to make pretty art for cool people 🤍
Really stoked with how this project is coming out. More of this please 🤍
July was for the sentimental and the sweethearts. I really love the real lovers. Here’s some sweet tattoos i got to do for parents, couples, siblings, and self love. I’m here for it all. Books always open 🤍
