Never having one specific art style, she fell in love with the variation of styles and elements present in tattoos and all the different possibilities within the medium. She loves all things ethereal, fantastical, and otherworldly. Though she can come off as quiet, she will welcome any client and their ideas with open arms and a down to earth personality.
