My story
Hi, I’m Kristen and I’m a tattoo artist based out of Tampa, Florida! I was born and raised in Tampa and have spent all of my life here, with my family being from Puerto Rico. Drawing since I can remember, I remember as a child always carrying a sketchbook with me everywhere I went, and always had the dream of becoming an artist. In order to pursue my artistic dreams, I went to Blake High School of the Arts. There, I honed in my artistic skill and knowledge and learned all I could about art and art history and applied it to my work. I also gained skills in ceramics, sculpture, film and digital photography, and metal smithing. I was featured in many galleries and events as I continued to make a name for myself in the art world.
After school, I learned and started tattooing at Tabernacle tattoo, taught by Master tattooer Zenon Pawelski. Under his training I learned everything I could about tattooing, and the skills on how to create dynamic and custom tattoo designs and how to execute them efficiently with precision. My goal in tattooing is to create a stunning piece of art and give my clients the experience they deserve and expect. I achieve this by using the highest quality inks and machines on the market, creating unique and flattering tattoo designs, and creating a comfortable and safe environment for my clients.
