I make art like a portal:
grounded, dreamy, and meant to be lived in
My journey as a tattoo artist, illustrator, and ritual maker
Art, magic, and inner worlds came first
I loved art, the ocean, and magic long before I had language for what they were doing to me. I grew up with spirituality around me, moved between belief systems, and held a quiet devotion to the mystical through books, films, and symbols. Art was always there too like drawing, painting, jewelry-making, and knitting… returning whenever life got too loud.
Choosing care and science over the “artist path”
I didn’t take the artist path at first. I chose science because it felt safer. I became a nurse, then a physical therapist… drawn to care, the body, and the desire to help people feel better. I worked in intense spaces: oncology, palliative care, children, the elderly.
Tattooing as a return to art, process, and truth
Handpoke tattoo training brought me back to art in a new way: less performance, more process. Less perfection, more truth. It loosened fear, allowed mistakes, and gave me permission to keep going. It didn’t just change my work, it changed my relationship with myself.
When the system didn’t match what bodies needed
Eventually, I ran into a truth I couldn’t unsee: many systems don’t actually support people. They manage them. They rush them. They minimize their pain. That tension between what bodies need and what the world demands, shaped everything I do now.
Where everything comes together now
Today, my practice has a clearer shape: tattoos, illustration, and sacred objects that support embodiment, self-trust, and the quiet reclamation of your own rhythm.
“My work isn’t about fixing you. It’s about nourishment, permission, and coming home to yourself.”
Artist Core Values
Nourishment over “fixing”
I don’t love the word healing anymore. It can keep people stuck in the belief that they’re broken. You don’t need fixing. You need nourishment. Space. Permission. Tools that bring you back to your inner compass. Stop fixing yourself & start listening to yourself.
Women’s bodies are sacred
Women’s bodies hold wisdom. Cycles hold wisdom. And so much of what we’ve been taught about beauty and “health” is actually control dressed up as virtue. I believe in body autonomy, body respect, and letting appearance be the least interesting thing about you.
Whole-human spirituality
I’m not here for spiritual “shoulds.” Anger isn’t low vibration. Quiet isn’t automatically enlightened. Being good isn’t the same as being whole. I’m interested in reclamation: integrating shadow, reclaiming truth, letting the full spectrum of humanness exist.
Feminist values live inside the work
My art is a refusal to shrink. A refusal of shame. A refusal of the split that tries to make women either “pure” or “desirable” but never whole. This work is about embodying the full wholeness of you are. The full spectrum and uniqueness of your humanity.
Who this work is for
This work is for the woman who looks like she’s handling everything, but inside she’s tired. The one who overthinks, pushes, people-pleases, and tries to do life “correctly.” The one who feels like something is missing but can’t name what.
You might be:
- craving softness without losing your fire
- carrying anxiety, guilt, shame, or repressed anger
- disconnected from your body, your rhythm, your pleasure
- longing for something more vibrant, more true
- drawn to magic, ritual, and meaning (even if you don’t call it that)
This work is for you if you want reminders and anchors—not more rules.
What I’m not doing anymore
I’m not creating from urgency. I’m not performing spirituality. I’m not building a life around hustle disguised as worthiness. I choose slowness. Depth. Meaning. Care.
