BOOKING INFO
My tattoos are all made machine-free, using a hand poke techniques. This gentle method typically causes less trauma to the skin and is generally considered to be more comfortable to receive.
To book a tattoo with me, please fill out the Tattoo Request Form linked in the tabs. If you are not quite ready to book but want to inquire about getting a tattoo, fill out the form with as much detail as possible and I will try my best to answer all of your questions concisely.
I tattoo out of a private studio 10-minutes south of Sharbot Lake.
✱ SLIDING SCALE ✱
To make my work more accessible, I use a sliding scale ($100-150/hour) payment system to reflect an anti-capitalist ideology. Most of my work ranges from 2–3 hours.
✱ BURSARIES ✱
Every month I have a free flash tattoo spot saved for BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour) folks. If you’re interested just mention it in your request form. If I have filled all the monthly spots, I’ll put you on a waitlist for the following month.
✱ FLASH VS CUSTOMS ✱
I am super eager to tattoo the flash I have already drawn, so I will likely prioritize flash requests (or variations of flash). However, if there’s a custom piece you think would be right up my alley, and you love my artwork, I will also make time for a handful of customs that fit my style!
You can claim a flash piece by including an image of the desired design in my the booking form. If you’re interested in custom work, please provide as much detail as possible; including your idea, where you’d like the piece, and include images of my work you like the style of. I will send a photo of the concept a couple of days before the appointment for your approval, and to discuss any changes you may want.
Please do not upload other people’s artwork. If this is a piece being tattooed in between other tattoos, feel free to include a photo of the desired placement so I can make sure to customize it to that spot.
