About me

Instagram: @tattoosbykat Website: Obsidiantattoo.com Visual Arts have been a passion of mine since childhood. My parents strongly encouraged all of their children to pursue their hobbies and embrace natural talents. As I aged and started to plan what I was doing with my future I always kept my arts passion alive. When I moved to Portland, OR in 2013 I enrolled in the tattoo program offered at Forbidden Body Art. I graduated in February 2014 and immediately started my career as a tattoo artist. I am now the owner of my own studio called Obsidian Tattoo which is located in the little neighborhood of Kenton. I opened this studio in the fall of 2016 with hopes of bringing a more calm and intimate feeling to the tattoo experience for my clients. I specialize in fine lined and detail oriented tattoos. I primarily use stippling, watercolor, lithography, geometric and botanical elements in my designs.
