Secret Garden + Body Ethics
I invite you to come completely as you are.
The private studio is a vivid space situated in the Buckman neighborhood of Portland, OR.
Ethics: As noted in my FAQs section - I practice consent based tattooing practices.
You are in control. I would like your verbal permission before touching any vulnerable areas of your body.
I invite you to speak up if/whenever you need to pause the session for any reason.
Cleanliness: Having a sterile environment is of the upmost importance. The studio is rigorously cleaned once a week.
Every work surface is sterilized before and after our session with cleaning supplies that do not harm the body, or the Earth.
Sustainability: You can rest assured that I have tried stubbornly to minimize the ecological impact of tattooing.
The inks used in our session are vegan and cruelty free. If you’d like to read up on where I source my supplies give the folks at GoodJudy a gander!
Aesthetics: The aesthetic of the studio is inspired by Hygge, the Danish concept of coziness in design. The studio space is a quiet and calm environment.
I want to ensuring your tattoo experience is one of contentment and peace of mind.
All appropriately aged humanoids are welcomed. No Bigots Allowed.
