  • I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Isabel. She made me feel comfortable from start to finish, checked in frequently, and made sure I was 100% happy with the design and placement before we began. Her calm, friendly energy made it easy to ask questions or bring up any concerns. I felt totally at ease in her chair. I would recommend Isabel to anyone looking for a great experience, and an even better tattoo.

  • Izzy is a top notch artist and an absolute joy to work with. She has done a couple pieces for me now and I have been so thrilled with the results, and Izzy made the entire experience easy, comfortable, and fun. She has a true passion for what she does and makes it evident in her work. From start to finish she made it clear that she wanted to provide an excellent product and wanted to ensure all my questions were answered. I could not recommend her enough!

  • My experience with Isabel was amazing. She is very professional and overall an amazing artist. I got my first ever tattoo done by her and she was very patient with me. I would definitely go back to her for future tattoos and recommend her to everybody. She has such a light hand and made it easier for me to sit through it. She is very quick but takes her time on the small details which I really appreciated with my tattoo since it did have those meaningful small details. Overall she is such an amazing person and my experience with her was a 10/10.

Ornamental tattooing in Isabel’s mind is true decoration of the body in it’s simplest form. The forms and flow of this style compliment the natural contours of the body in a way that can only be described as mesmerizing. Textiles, mosaics, and ceramics are all other forms of art that Isabel draws inspiration from when creating tattoos in this style.
