About Lee

I’m Lee. I love illustration and tattooing. Life has taken me all around. I was raised in San Jose, CA, then spent 8 years on the east coast - both in Savannah, GA and Philly, PA. I’m queer, trans, and am of mixed Asian American ethnicity, which all are influences on my work, but more than anything I like movement, complexity, and color.

I hope very much to meet and work with you in person, and together we will listen to the hypnotic hum of tattoo machines while creating beautiful body art.

Go ahead and submit a contact form to get in touch, or check out my website and talk to me there :)

HOWDY!

What I enjoy tattooing:

  • Miyazaki-inspired tattoo designs

  • Illustrative and animated animals and florals

  • Fantastic beasts, especially dragons

  • Memorial tattoos

  • Ocean and ocean animals

  • Freehanded air, smoke, water, and fire

About Tessa

My name is Tessa! and I can’t wait to support your dreaming & help you feel so good in your body ~ that’s why I love tattoos. I feel more & more like myself with every beautiful or silly or colorful design that goes onto my skin suit.

​So who am I? I’m a big goob - I love animals, candy, color & playfulness. I value laughter, compassion & self-care. I have lived all over the West Coast, and I am happy to call Portland home.

Oh, and I love drawing! I have been doodlin' & drawin’ flowers, silly faces & naked ladies since I could pick up a pencil.

If you’d like to get in touch with me, please go ahead and submit a contact form, or check out my website or DM me on Instagram!

About mama vee

I'm Vee! I’m a queer and neurodivergent tattoo artist born and raised here in Portland, Oregon. I have been creating art since I can remember! I’m more of a deep thinker than a small talker, I love truly connecting with people. Outside of tattooing, I’m always up for outdoor adventures but can get down with bed rotting to a binge-worthy show.

I’m driven by the power of meaningful connections and helping people feel confident and connected to their bodies. I believe tattoos can be a profound way to honor ourselves and stories.

My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, understood, and cared for throughout the entire process. I’d be honored to work with you and create something that's uniquely yours.

To get in touch with me, check out my website, send me an email or DM me on Instagram!

what do i want to tattoo?

My favorite style to tattoo is black and grey illustrative, with fine line details.

Some themes I’m drawn to are:

  • Fantasy inspired designs (dragons, thestrals, magical creatures)

  • Nature themes (botanicals, animals, bones, bugs)

  • Pagan, witchy, celestial (moons, stars, mystical symbols)

  • Symbolic and personal designs with deep meaning
