Chauna B.
The Culturally Inspired Tattoo Artist
As one of the tattoo artists in the modern-day, I’ve always had great respect for this ancient art form. I am constantly inspired by indigenous methods of tattooing and ancient or time-tested symbology.
Because my enthusiasm is rooted in the origins of this art, my portfolio reflects designs by tribal patterns across different cultures, geometric and line-based designs, plant life, and a passion for black ink.
I think that the striking contrast between one’s skin tone and the black ink is one of the true beauties of tattooing. I also have plenty of examples of the color-rich tattoo, highlighting what is possible when color is on the minds of the client and the artist.
