Testimonials
“The way Rebecca took my idea and turned it into a masterpiece is remarkable. Her skills as a tattoo artist are second to none.
More than that, the way she listened to what was important to me is what really sets her apart from every other tattoo artist that I spoke to.
I showed off my tattoo a lot today and I bragged a lot on finding the best tattoo artist in the area.”
— James Nash.
“I am thrilled with my AMAZING illustrative tattoo, to remind me of the wonderful time I had in Asheville.
Rebecca is truly a gift to the universe. Her talent is incredible and undeniable, and her human-ness is just oozing from her pores. I could have chatted with her for hours. Thank you so very much for saying "yes" when asked if you had time to tattoo two random ladies!”
— Kelly G. & Susan
“A few months after my cover-up tattoo has healed and “settled” it is still a 10 out of 10! Really great. It is just remarkable how the old guy has vanished. Thank you Rebecca!”
