Pencil, oil, acrylic, digital and ink, no matter the medium, art has been the driving force in my life. Since my early days locking myself away in a room with nothing more than a pencil and a sketchbook, creating and design has always been at the forefront of my mind and personality. I live to create and can find artistic beauty in all aspects of life. Being Inspired by artists such as Luis Royo has only added to my motivation to learn anything and everything I can about art in any form and to leave my mark on the world and my name in the art history books (and not just where I scribbled it inside the cover of her high school and college textbooks.)
After receiving a Fine Arts Diploma from the College of New Caledonia in Prince George BC, I had come down with a rather expensive and addictive habit, taking my love of art on paper and canvas and moving it into skin. From the moment, I acquired my first large tattoo from Richie Lucero, (a large traditional Japanese dragon the length of my entire leg) I was completely and hopelessly addicted to tattoos. Ever since, my collection of tattoos the desire to learn the art form had grown.
My Tattoo journey started in 2012 and in 2020 a new chapter of my career.
My own Studio.
Crimson Dawn Collective.
With all the challenges of opening a new business and trying to stay open through a pandemic it was defiantly a challenge. Through the years I have worked with multiple styles, bold Neo-traditional and Black and Grey Realism are some of my personal favourites and I am always looking for new projects that pushes the creative.
Becoming a mentor was the new thing… learning new things everyday.
