I was recommended to Nina from another shop because they bought she was the only one you could execute a supernova space tattoo and boy were they right! From there I decided to make it a 3/4 sleeve because I felt comfortable with the artist and her talent. She was super polite about redirecting my sometimes bad ideas and beyond that just incredibly easy to talk to over the next series of 12-15 appointments. Nina's shop has a lovely older pop culture feel mixed with art. The finished product I knew would turn out from the beginning. I get complements all the time and would always recommend her. Read Less

Nina is incredible. She creates stunning custom tattoos in any style. She tends to be booked out rather far, but don't be deterred--it is WELL worth the wait. A true artist and good human.

I absolutely love my tattoos from Nina. She has done a few for me and I have referred her to my family and friends. She responds quickly to emails and will work with you about designs that way. Her shop is clean, artistic and inviting. I will go to her for all my tattoos. She is worth the wait for her amazing creations. She took one of my tattoo disasters and turned it into something I can show off. I will not go to another artist after working with her. Read Less

Nina is an excellent artist. I receive compliments on my sleeve anytime I wear short sleeves in public and I give her full credit! She worked with me from square one to create a custom design. The illustration she put on paper was even better and more beautiful than what I had described to her. She also chose the perfect placement for it, answers all my questions over the years, and keeps my mind at ease during every visit. All of my tattoos will be done by Nina as long as she remains in Seattle... Hell I'd probably travel to get work done from her :) She is beyond brilliant and I can't recommend her enough! Read Less

I knew I wanted a large piece for my first tattoo when I was 18 and had a general idea of what I wanted. Nina ran with my idea and created an incredible first piece that I am still in love with now ten years later. A few years after that I decided I only wanted her talent for my half sleeve to commemorate my late grandmother, as well as incorporate my love for animals and the tropics. I threw almost ten images her way and a month later, she previewed the sketch she made and I was BLOWN AWAY!!!!! It was beyond what I could ever imagine it becoming and was executed in a few sessions. For the third time I'm returning with full confidence in her skill to make my memorial cat tattoo something spectacular. It may be months down the road, but I know it'll be worth the wait! During sessions, she is completely at ease in her profession; so happy and makes the experience unforgettable. I may have a high pain tolerance, but even the most "painful" areas were a breeze to get through. Her scope of work speaks for itself. Go in for a consult, especially if you're looking for a truly unique piece. This woman is insanely talented!!! Read Less
