Amy began her professional art career in 2012. Determined to create a life around her passion, she began exhibiting in various galleries. Her work is influenced by the beauty of nature, the female form, and traditional ornamental elements.​

​

In July of 2015 she found what would become her artistic calling, embellishing art on skin, tattoos. 

​

Amy completed her apprenticeship in March 2016 and has been striving to create unique artwork for her clients since. Bringing forth creative expression of self, Amy seeks to bring unity to the body and mind. Connecting her clients with meaningful art, bringing about a sense of completion and renewal.

Her passion is to create large scale body art.

​

With a primary focus on tattoos that incorporate elements of nature, she enjoys tattooing animals and florals. Amy also specializes in illustrative and kawaii anime tattoos

  • Sweet Ichigo Art

Hello! My name is Abbi and I am 21 years old. Ive been drawing ever since I was able to pick up a pencil. I love making cute and bright art pieces but sometimes I prefer it on the dark side as well. I do both digital and traditional work. Some things that inspire me are japanese fashion, anime, cartoons, my pets, and video games.

My goal is to spread joy through what I create and make people smile.
