History
Established in 2000.
Tattooing Polynesian Freehand tattoos while living in Hawaii, learning contemporary and traditional Polynesian motifs, I learned in an apprenticeship. Making needles by hand, as did all of us back then, I started in the craft with a soldiering iron and the smell of flux. Learning the history of the craft through Traditional American and Japanese tattooing, along with Polynesian, I fell in love with the craft.
Tattooing in San Francisco since March 2013, and working with talented artists in the local community, I enjoy blending colors on a new clientele, as well as keeping black work Polynesian as a focus to my connection with the island.
