I began tattooing in Kelowna, in 2007, after completing my degree in Fine Arts from UBC-O. After leaving for a few years to travel, and opening my own studio in Tofino, I have returned to the Okanagan and now have a shop in Kelowna’s beautiful Kettle Valley, #104-5309 Main St.
I have been drawing and painting for as long as I can remember. The transition into tattooing after art school, although challenging, felt natural. A way to utilize my drawing and painting skills, while exploring a new medium, on skin. I have been tattooing well over a decade now and the relationship between my art and tattooing is ever changing and always teaching.
With growing up in the Okanagan, and having lived on Vancouver Island, I have always enjoyed nature and the outdoors. My passion is to capture the world as I see it, in a realistic style, whether it is animals, flowers or portraits, pretty much anything in nature!
