How much do you charge?
I’m currently charging $110 an hour.
If a tattoo is palm sized or smaller, the tattoo will probably cost around $220. For designs 6”x6” or larger, the tattoo will typically cost at least $300. Factors that impact price include size and complexity, which lengthen the tattoo session.
For larger tattoos I require a deposit of $50. Deposits are deducted from the total cost at the time of your appointment, and are refundable if you cancel your appointment at least 24 hours prior to the appointment itself! Emergencies happen, but please communicate with your artists if you have to miss an appointment last minute.
For transparency, 5% of my rate goes to a land tax to those whose land we’re on (in Portland, this includes and is not limited to Multnomah, Umatilla, Cowlitz, and Confederated Tribes of Siletz and Grand Ronde), and may also go towards the Land Back movement and related mutual aid calls.
I have a sliding scale for QTBIPOC (queer/trans Black, Indigenous, and/or people of color), trans, and disabled clients! Please include in your initial email if you would like to utilize this, and I will send more details.

Is there anything you won’t tattoo?
YES! I have a hard limit around racist and/or culturally appropriative designs.
For custom pieces, please look at my art before reaching out! If you don’t like my style, you probably won’t be happy with what I create. There are tons of artists with tons of styles, and I can always recommend another artist whose style is more compatible with what you’re looking for.
