the flower thief

A little about me…I grew up in the countryside of Oregon and have been drawing animals (especially horses) and plants (especially ferns) for as long as I can remember. I have been tattooing since 2021 and was a pediatric ICU nurse for 9 years before that big career change. I love folk art and really enjoy blending folksy elements into soft illustrative designs as well as adorning the body with bold, simple, decorative design. I work mainly in black, red, and turquoise. Subject-wise, I enjoy drawing flora/fauna, magical things, strange things, silly things, and decorative adornments / gap fillers.

In addition to tattooing, I also co-own a record & art shop called “Broken Dreams” located on NE Alberta St. I love helping find the fun music, art, clothing, & everything else we sell there as well as supporting other fellow artists & makers! Come visit!
