i have been tattooing professionally since 2000, after undergoing an
apprenticeship of almost one year in Oshvegas, Wisconsin. honestly, i still consider myself
an apprentice to the art of tattooing -- there is still so much to learn.
early on in my career i bought a tattoo shop, and eventually bought out the
piercing business as well. i strived to make the shop a completely custom tattoo
studio --which created quite a following. tattoo collectors cherish
exhibiting a tat that they
know no one else will have. and above all, that they
own a beautiful piece of living art. in 2003 my husband and i moved to New
Mexico where i worked at tinta cantina tattoo, in Albuquerque - right on the old
Route 66.
In 2004 my husband and i opened a shop housing a tattoo and
lampworking studio,
A-Ok Custom Tattoo
& Exonerate Glass Studio,
as well as a art gallery in Roswell, NM. i have
now made it a goal of mine to tattoo only 4 to 5 days a week and leave the
rest of my time open for other art forms. my other art i feel gives me
an advantage when designing and tattooing for inspiration and creativity. my
portfolio will be growing continuously, so keep a look out for new pics of
my original custom work !
