Tattoo Studio

Welcome to the Studio!
​
I operate my licensed tattoo practice out of my private home studio in Kitchener, Ontario. I specialize in equine designs,  sketch style illustrative and stylized realism. I am currently focusing on medium to large projects, favouring subjects such as horses and animals, nature, botanicals, divine feminine, ornamentals, gestural sketch art, and flash.  My full portfolio and flash album can be found on Instagram. Please note that I do not use AI in my design work and every piece of art is unique and hand drawn. 

Proposals that are script, American trad, and cartoons are least likely to be taken on although exceptions are often made. I like to create art that will stand the test of time and prefer prefer to steer clear of tiny tattoos and watercolours with no framework. 

My availability varies throughout the seasons as I work around my family's schedule.

You must be 18+

Pricing:​

1. Monday-Friday Daytime Rate (10am-1pm start time)
   = $180/hr +hst 
   Evening (3pm+ start time) and Weekend Rate
   = $200/hr + hst
2. Booking minimum is $180+hst. After the first hour I charge to the quarter hour. The time covers the entire tattoo process, including stenciling time. I don't charge for the time I spend taking photos!
3. I do not do tiny tattoos. 
4. A $113 deposit is required to book your spot, which goes toward the final cost of the appointment. The deposit is non-refundable but is transferable once to a new date with a minimum 72 hrs notice. 
5. A touch up is included within the first year, except on hand, finger and foot tattoos.
6. The full cost of the tattoo is due the day of the work done. I do not take credit cards or hold tabs, please make sure you can afford the tattoo you’re coming in for. If you need to stick within a budget, please let me know before we design!
7. I accept cash and e-transfer.
8. Designs are started about a week prior to the scheduled appointment upon confirmation.
9. I do send over your design at least the evening before your appointment, and usually sooner. I can accommodate small changes, however major changes and redraws are subject to a Redraw Fee. The amount of the redraw fee is dependent on the scope of the change, size and complexity of the design.  As many of my designs take upwards of 10+ hours behind the scenes, sometimes major changes will not be achievable before the appointment and will have to be rescheduled with a forfeit of the original deposit. To ensure the best and most efficient results, please take time and care when sending your inquiry form.
10. I do not copy other artist's artwork, however the more reference images you send over the better idea I will have of what your unique artwork should be!
11. I prefer to keep our conversation in written form either through email, Messenger or DM rather than via phone, text or in person simply because it allows me to read back over what we've discussed once I am dialed into your design, especially if we last chatted months ago. I find a detailed description combined with good placement photos is all I need to design for you. That being said, I am always happy to schedule in a quick video chat free of charge if you'd like to "meet" me :)
12. There are always many pre-drawn designs available and can be found in my highlight reels on Instagram :)
13. I love coverup challenges! Please have a solid budget available and flexibility in the design as coverups take delicate planning and require the design to be larger, darker, and/or coloured to properly disguise the original.

BOOKING

To book your appointment and/or quote a custom design, please fill out the contact form OR send me an email to [email protected] and include:

• Your name, email and phone number.
• A detailed description of what you would like done and whether it is colour or black/grey.
• Your budget if you have one.
• Reference images (the more the better) with details of what you like/dislike about them.
• Placement, preferably with a photo.
• Size preference.
• Date preferences if any, or a general rundown of your availability.
• If inquiring about a pre-made design, a screenshot of the piece you'd like to claim as your own :)
  
  

Please take the utmost time and care when filling out your form and include as many details and images as possible to give us the best chance at avoiding additional redraw charges.

I am usually booking a couple of months ahead, and will offer some date options based on the scope of your proposal. Because everything is hand drawn, I take into account my available drawing time as well as available appointment time. I am not a "draw it the night before or morning of" kind of artist, that's Stressful! 

Once a date is agreed upon, a $113 non-refundable deposit is required to secure your date. The deposit is non-refundable but is transferable to a new date with a minimum 48 hrs notice.

Thank you for your interest!! I can't wait to hear your awesome ideas!!
