MAKING MEANiNG

DTLA tattoo sessions 2025

From my heart to yours,
I thank you deeply for your interest in this work

After a many moon pause and massive life reconfiguration -
I am delighted to share with you that I now have a studio in DTLA
From time to time I will open up our doors for tattoo sessions - with great joy here are the first dates with two different ways of working together…

With love and gratitude

This is a container for you

to be witnessed, to collaboratively create a medicine marking - informed by what you bring to session.
Whether it be what you are going through at your innermost layers, tangible thresholds you are traversing in life, honoring loss,
creating remembrance,
committing to intention…
A supported process of presence
for you, to mark time,
to make meaning, to honor
what has been
and what has yet to be.

two ways
of creating together

Same energy and presence - different scales.
One a little kiss - the other a transformational deep dive.

Details and exchange below.

Something new, light weight, and fun.
Sometimes it’s just about a tiny flourish.
A few dots. A small star. A petit cosmic kiss.
The little details that hold something special.
For you - by hand - with care.

My bread and butter. The one and only transformational deep dive. My primary tattoo offering. Probably what you know me by.
The full ceremony. Created for you by way of deep listening - attuning - scribing.

A little more about these sessions

The following will apply a bit more to the deep dive however will remain true for both paths.

When you arrive we will spend some time in dialogue.
This time offers an invitation to be witnessed and allows me to deeply listen so that we may further build understanding and meaning together.
Once that time feels complete we will move into
drawing imagery directly onto your body.
If any adjustments need be made, we will do so until
the piece is completely resonant for you.
Once the image lands we will move into tattooing.
This is done entirely by hand.
Dot by dot until solid lines form.
A deep meditation on many pieces constructing a whole.
A reflection of life itself.

This work is a prayer,
a pattern,
a poem.

An opportunity and invitation to come into presence and wakeful relating to the thresholds of life.
To be witnessed in that which may otherwise go unspoken.

If for some reason you are unable to make your session the deposit is non-refundable
however can be applied to a future session.
