I started tattooing some time in the early 90’s in Berlin. After moving and working in San Francisco for a while, I came to Seattle and have worked at Slave since 2003. It’s a great pleasure to work with such an inspiring and friendly group of people!
My mission is to work with clients to transform their ideas into a clean and uncluttered custom design that will fit and flow well on the body. I’m inspired by the great nature itself, the many forms of Asian art, illustration, and countless other pieces of awesome art.
I’ve been doing a lot of color tattoos and love doing them, but would like to include more black and grey work again. I’m looking forward to hearing your ideas!

Hi everyone! Are you still here? Sorry, I haven’t posted anything in a while, because I was gone for the summer. Now I’m back and I have some openings! At the moment I’m taking on select projects. 🔹🔹🔹Would love to do some more black and grey work too. If you have a project, please submit a request with a short description on the Slave To The Needle website. Link in bio. Thank you 🙏 💗

This picture didn’t work in the previous post, so again: A fun black and grey phoenix added to an existing lower arm tattoo, which needed to be reworked and partially covered up. #phoenixtattoo #blackandgreytattoo #phoenixsleeve #seattletattooartist #phoenix #seattletattoo

This tattoo represents the clawing through difficulties (hands and rocks), and the eventual rising from that, as a phoenix. #phoenix #risingfromtroubles #seattletattooartist #seattletattoo #womantattooartist #femaletattooartist #seattletattoo #lowerarmtattoo
