General Info

Each and every tattoo I create is freehand without stencils, templates or previous design. No two pieces are alike and no one will ever be able to get what you have, nor will I be able to duplicate it.  Your piece of permanent body art is created just for YOU!

I start one of two ways; with watercolor paint directly on your preferred tattoo location area if we are in the "idea" stage or I prepare your skin, set up my colors and paint with the tattoo ink (with a brush) on the area and then tattoo the painting! Creating original art right there on your body allows me to design for each person's unique shapes, curves, and personalities.
I don't use other designs or tweak existing images. I just paint what feels right for each person's body based on that session, our connection, my natural artistic strengths and prayerful inspiration. Of course, I always take into mind what the client has come with as an inspiration point; their images, ideas, and then set them aside and create without boundaries and preconceived design. At this stage, it's only paint so there is no pressure on myself or you!
I have learned over time, with 25 yrs as a Fine Artist and with my Tattoo Art, that when I approach creating this way, it always produces the best results! I The most loved and successful Fine Art and Tattoos I've done have come from this uninhibited place of inspiration, where both I and the client step out of the way and let real inspiration come naturally!

I don't charge for the design/consultation time.  This opens up a comfortable space to relax, connect, have a coffee and create without the pressure of budget or time. Once we confirm our painted design, I prepare to begin and start to charge from there. I charge $150/HR.
If in the consultation, we find that the inspiration does not line up with each other than we take the cue and we finish our coffee and visit and I refer you to another talented Artist who can fulfill your specific design wishes. I would rather send you elsewhere to get what you want, then give you something to have forever, that neither of us is happy with. I like being able to look people in the eye when I see them again in public
It's important for my prospective clients to look through my portfolio so you can see what my style is. If my style of Fine Art & Tattoos resonate with you and you are open to this creative approach, you will enjoy the process and the results created for you at Blessings Studio

Clean environment, with a very positive, salon-like feel. Quite simply, Crystal creates beautiful pieces of art on your body. If you are looking for an "outside the box" tattoo, this is your place.

Got my tattoo from Crystal at Blessings Studio and I could not be happier. I was super nervous and not sure how the session would go since I had in my head the more "traditional" tattoo scenes from movies. This is nothing like that, nothing like I had imagined. There is no book of images to flip through and choose from. There is truly no pressure to know beforehand what you think you want. I honestly thought I needed to know what I wanted even though I had read about how she ...worked and thought I knew and understood. What I got was so much more and exactly what she says she does- she created a one of a kind piece of artwork using my body. It is nothing like I have ever seen before and nothing she will ever re-create on someone else. I highly recommend Crystal if you're looking for an amazing and unique piece of artwork tailored to you and your body. Thank you so much for the amazing experience. I look forward to more with you in the future � See More Read Less

Having Crystal tattoo me today was my absolutely best ink experience yet. I have been to 4 other studios for work, that have all been great, but no other place or artist has had me feeling so comfortable. Crystal added colour and life to an existing tattoo of mine, that I still love, but needed some flair. I would 100% recommend anyone looking for water colour work specifically or just something totally unique to go see Crystal. Oh, and Marie absolutely adds to the fun and comfortable atmosphere in the studio, she is wonderful. Read Less

I saw Crystal for a fairly long session yesterday, she started on the first of many pieces we have planned to do together. The atmosphere of the salon is intimate, comfortable and inviting, clean and sterile. I love the experience Crystal creates, right from the second I walked in the door, to hours later when when were finished for the day my comfort, ideas and feedback were always paramount. Crystal is incredibly intuitive, and if one is able to communicate what is desi...red in the piece, she will make it come to life. She does 100% custom designed pieces, so one will never need to worry about seeing the same thing on another guest, nor will she "copy" another artists work; a characteristic I believe deserves upmost respect and credit, as her art is absolutely her own creation guided by your communication as to what you want to achieve. She is encouraging and was able to help me focus through the painful parts (we all know tattoos are painful), which is something I have never had with the other tattoos I have received in the past. All in all, I feel honoured to have Crystal's art on my body, I feel as if I have made a life-long friend and I can't wait for more!!!! See More Read Less
