COVID-19

Early 2020 for us, a pandemic changed life as we know it. Much of my process is different now.

Once upon a time I sat with you in studio, for hours at a time, drawing. We’d make a home base on the lobby desk or picnic table outside and dedicate hours, sometimes days to sorting out just what you want. It was a long process. For most clients it was a boring process. But it gave me a window into the realm of what *you* want. I try to take what I learned after years of drawing with you this way into consultations now. I ask specific, somewhat obscure questions. I allow every decision to be yours. I have never been comfortable as an artist to just do x, y, and z. Instead, I say “I think we should do x, y, and z” and gauge your responses.

For this reason I have a consultation with everybody. I do consultations now via zoom, from the safety of wherever we are. I get to see your face, share my tablet screen, and look with you at all of the ideas we have. I can take real time notes, point to things, show you stuff. Its as good as in person!

I will get a design together after we chat and reach out for a quick chat if I have more questions, a better idea, or went wild with it and need your okay. Sometimes our first talk will lead to many more before we get where we’re going. I will do my best to make sure the tattoo you get is what you and I will be most happy with.
Masks are now optional, however I encourage you to ask me to wear one if it makes you feel safer. I will tattoo with a mask regardless, for sanitation reasons. Hand sanitizer is everywhere for your convenience. Snacks can be eaten at your leisure now, and I encourage everyone to bring snacks, especially long sitters!
Tattoo Release Forms are digital now, so you can fill them out on your phone prior to entering. They MUST be filled out the day of the tattoo. Find the forms you need on the homepage right below my bio.
