The Artist
Art has always been the constant love in my life. Inspired by my Great Grandmother, an incredibly talented artist in many mediums, but especially oil painting. I could doodle and smudge paint around for hours daydreaming of being as talented as she was. My tattoo journey began at 14 years old when I got my first tattoo machines. A gift from my parents with only one rule— Don’t tattoo myself. So, being the teen I was, I tattooed a smiley face on my hand. As my mentor said “That’s a peak origin story” 15 year later, I’m in my own studio. Living a life-long dream. Hoping to create captivating art and uniques experiences for those who enter my studio.
Ink & Ash was created with the Phoenix in mind. As life has taken us all through obstacles, we rise from the ashes. Not forgetting what was burned, but forever new.
