About Shelby

Shelby is a tattoo artist born and raised in Arizona. She has been tattooing in a professional space since June of 2021 after completing a guided apprenticeship. Her professional goal is to provide a clean, welcoming, calm space for all bodies to come and receive life-lasting body art. Shelby tattoos a variety of styles and subject matters, but specializes in nature inspired blackwork using complimentary bold forms with delicate, fineline details. 

Shelby spent her younger years practicing in a range of interests including sports, sciences, and of course, the arts. Shelby practiced fine art in the form of painting and drawing from life references as a child, before spending a short stint in Colorado to pursue and complete a Bachelor's of Science. After, Shelby would work in clinical research for two years before deciding to pursue her love of art again in the form of tattooing. Best career choice ever!
