Hey hi hello! I’m Kristen — a tattoo artist and illustrator among the clouds in Portland, OR. 🌧
Howdy! I’m Kristen — the human behind the screen/Apple Pencil/needle. I’m originally from Northern California, but moved up to the PNW in 2018 after getting real tired of too much sunshine. I now live in North Portland with my partner and our lucky black cat, Mary Berry.
I’m a graphic designer, illustrator, and a second-year tattoo artist. I am always working to understand how tattooing affects both the artist and the person getting tattooed on a deeper level. It’s my goal to create a space where you feel comfortable in your skin, and safe to speak up about the process, and leave more confident than when you came in.
