Danielle’s Tattoo Portfolio

I’m a Portland-based tattoo artist working in a graphic and illustrative style, and an oil painter working in (mainly)realism. My work often focuses on storytelling, symbolism, utilizing metaphors and creating meaningful, lasting imagery. I believe the client’s experience is the most important part of tattooing, and commissioned work. I strive to create a calm, respectful environment while interpreting each person’s vision with clarity and care.
Tattooing and painting exist as parallel practices in my life, both rooted in observation, research, and emotional resonance. I earned my BFA in Painting and Drawing with a minor in Art + Ecology in 2020 and completed my MFA in 2025. My goals are to continue developing both practices in a supportive creative community while offering clients thoughtful, collaborative tattoo experiences.
