Lotus
Robbin is one of my older clients, and sat like a champ. She even came back two weeks later to add that butterfly! Represents her balance and love for yoga, as well as her family.
Skeleton Key
The first full color tattoo I did! The first image is before touch-ups, the second was after.
Antler
My first ever tattoo! September 2012. On my trusting best friend, a tribute for a day she had in the woods with her mother.
Silverstein Silverware
Done on my friend Cat Stephens (yes, her real name). I didn't do the "gee" and "haw," but the Shel Silverstein pieces were done as one of my first tattoos. About a year later we added the knife and fork so she can eat her way into the afterlife!
Anchors
Anchors are a right of passage as a tattoo artist, I suppose. These were done on a couple, and in my very early days of tattooing.
Thigh Lines and Forearms
Really love that placement on the back of the thighs.
That first tattoo was a commemorative one done on my friend Cassidy, for our trip to Colorado in Spring Break of 2013. It reminded us of mountains, and we watched the Joy Division movie while out there. Very suiting and fun tattoo.
The little coffin-looking line pieces are Viva's version of haitian loas.
The bottom piece is a little geometric coverup of Rayna's stick & poke "prog" which was supposed to say "progress," I believe. I giggled at that one. The geometric piece is based off of simple geometry and stained glass windows.
