request to an appointment.
I am currently working out of Thousand Cranes Tattoo Studio in San Jose, CA.
If you haven't already, please take a look at my collection of digital and traditional works. You will be able to see examples of what type of ink work I am most interested in. Additionally check out my FAQ for information about appointment structure, accessibility, and aftercare.
I am currently interested in taking on the following project types:
✿ Large-scale illustrative scenes
✿ Scientific illustration and field guide sketching
✿ Dot work pieces
✿ Flora & fauna
✿ Shiny chrome
✿ Unclaimed artwork and flash posted to my Instagram
Work I am not interested in:
Symbols, phrases, or words that are rooted in racism, sexism, transphobia, xenophobia, or any other hateful or discriminatory origins
Script in languages that neither you nor I are capable of speaking, reading, or writing
artwork by other artists (unless permission has been explicitly given)
realism
areas including: neck, ear, face, hands, genitals or feet
If you're not completely sure what type of work you're interested in yet, that's okay! Feel free to send a booking request with as much information as you are able to provide and I will reach out if I believe I am the best fit for your needs.
Rates.
I currently offer sliding-scale rates of $175-$200/hr with a $200 hour minimum for all custom designs. I require a $100 non-refundable deposit per anticipated session at the time of booking, which will go toward the total cost of your tattoo. Some designs such as those on flash sheets may have set or discounted rates.
Working within a client’s budget and aligning our expectations is very important to me. In some cases I may offer “fixed” rate pricing for large scale pieces, this allows us to move at a pace that feels comfortable without the stress of a fluctuating price.
