🎨 COLOR THAT GRABS ATTENTION 🎨

Mandy Jackal () doesn’t do subtle. She does bold, bright, and unapologetically fun. Based in Cleveland (with roots in Jacksonville), Mandy builds high-impact neo-traditional and illustrative tattoos packed with personality and punch.

Anime. Video games. Pop culture. Nature. Animals. If it’s playful and vibrant, she’s in — but don’t mistake fun for sloppy. Her work is clean, saturated, and built to last. Strong lines. Smart composition. Color that actually holds.

And the vibe? Collaborative. Comfortable. Client-first. You’re part of the build, not just the canvas.

Catch Mandy on tour:
📍 Cleveland Tattoo Arts Festival | Feb 20–22
📍 Chicago Tattoo Arts Festival | Mar 20–22
📍 Raleigh Tattoo Arts Festival | June 12–14

🔥 3 days of live tattooing, elite artists, and Villain Arts energy
