Resident Artist + Co-owner

Tattooing since 2012, Robin has established a distinct illustrative style, specializing in botanical tattoos. Big blooms, lots of detail and foliage, and sometimes subtle meaningful elements can be found in her designs. Each piece is a collaboration in the sense of bringing ideas together, gathering inspiration and settling on plan of action during the consultation phase. She then will take those ideas to create a unique piece of artwork for the client.

Robin works by appointment only and takes on a limited amount of new projects a few times a year. To schedule with Robin, when her books are open there will be a submission form up on her website at robinelizabethart.com She announces open booking on instagram as well as through our email newsletter.

The idea of becoming a tattoo artist had always been a dream of mine, but it took until the year 2020 for me to make it a reality.

Throughout my artistic journey, I have developed a strong interest in Mesoamerican culture. The intricate patterns and rich symbolism found in this ancient civilization have captivated my artistic sensibilities. This cultural influence has acted as a driving force in my tattooing career, leading me to explore and incorporate elements of Mesoamerican aesthetics in my artwork.

In terms of style, I am drawn to the elegance and depth of black and gray tattoos. Realism, in particular, has become my primary focus; the challenge of capturing lifelike images on skin fuels my artistic growth. Additionally, I have a fondness for traditional and neo-traditional tattoos. The vibrant colors and bold lines prevalent in these styles allow for boundless creative expression.

I must acknowledge that I am still in the early stages of my career, and I am cognizant of the growth and improvement that lie ahead. However, I am deeply dedicated to honing my craft and continuously expanding my artistic abilities. Tattooing has become more than a mere profession for me; it is a lifelong journey of artistic exploration and self-expression.
