Today I did my first tattoo on my MOM! 😭🙏❤️The Studio Collective LLC
From art, to piercing, to permanent makeup, and now tattooing, I've never stopped looking for new ways to grow and challenge myself creatively.
What an honor to tattoo my mom, the same woman who has been tattooing for 24 years, who showed me what it means to build a career doing what you love, and who set the example that learning never stops...
Being trusted with this milestone by the person who inspired so much of my own journey made it even more meaningful. After the last 14 years of working alongside her, this felt like a full circle moment. 🤗
I was actually so freaking nervous, and it's shaky as hell, but my mom is a great mentor.
I never knew I would love tattooing so much in addition to piercing.
Forever evolving, forever learning, and incredibly grateful for where it all started!!
Next up, I will need volunteers...😁
