“I would rather share one lifetime with you than face all the Ages of this world alone.”

This one hit different.

Fine-line spine piece inspired by Isildur’s sword and the story that really holds LOTR together — the love between Arwen and Aragorn. Subtle, intentional, and built to last.

Huge thanks to my client Amy for the trust and for leaving such a great review! knowing she walked away genuinely happy means everything.

I’m back in Kelowna and taking bookings again. If you’ve got an idea with meaning behind it, let’s make it real.

A while back I worked with a client who wanted a floral design for her very first tattoo. She came in excited but nervous, totally normal for a first timer!

We talked through her idea, shaped it together, and when she saw the final piece on her arm… that joy made my whole day.

These are the moments that remind me why I love tattooing. Special thanks to ._ferguson for the trust and the review and thank you to everyone who trusts me with their skin and their stories.🖤

If you’ve been wanting a tattoo, big or small, my DMs are open!

Cardinals don’t migrate. When seasons turn harsh, they stay, adapt, and endure. This one lives in black and grey ,not for lack of color, but for strength.

A reminder that real resilience doesn’t leave when things get cold. Deeply grateful to my client for trusting me with something this meaningful. 🖤

Ink & water on skin 🐢🖋️💧
This sea turtle was originally brought in as a Japanese-style ink and watercolor illustration and I had the pleasure of translating it into tattoo form as my client requested.
We kept the softness, movement, and brushstroke feel, just now it’s living on skin. Kelowna, BC 🇨🇦

My client wanted the original Dark Mark from Harry potter… but here’s why we didn’t do it.

When my client came in, he asked for the classic Dark Mark from the movies but in this case, the design was something that will not translate we’ll to skin.

The original is iconic, sure, but it’s not built for a clean or long-lasting detail. So I redesigned it from the ground up in bold black & grey realism, keeping the soul of the mark but giving it a powerful new look that actually works as a tattoo.

Swipe through to see the full process, from concept to final result… and wait ‘til the last slide to see how it stacks up against the original. Trust me, you’ll never look at the Dark Mark the same way again.

A colorful portrayal I did some time ago of bipolarity, where two contrasting worlds exist inside the same person.
The highs and lows, the light and dark, all captured in ink as an intricate dance of color and emotion.
This piece speaks to the complexity of mental health, reminding us that balance is a journey, not a destination.
