Thank you for adopting my wannadoodle ghostie, Pauline.

Such a lovely afternoon with a likeminded (confused) soul. 😬💕

Last week, we finally finished Emma's octopus! 🤩

About half of it was already done a year ago (sometimes life gets in the way), so it was a bit difficult to get a somewhat decent photo, but I wanted to post this anyway because TENTACLES!!!

Thank you for coming all the way from Ireland AND blessing me with getting to draw/tattoo one of my favorite things to drape around people's skins. 😆🙏🖤🖤🖤

[half healed, half fresh]

We finished Mel's crystal gecko! (Chemistry nerdery ftw!! Can't wait for turning more of your funtastic ideas into tattoos... :D)

[most of black healed, rest fresh]

Books and Beanies.

Friendship meerkats for Juliane and Maike. Thank you for trusting me with this equally fun and meaningful project! Hope you'll always be there for each other, as that beanie is for Maike. :D

I 🖤 Sana('s knee). Thanks for letting me torture you with your own machine! :D

Don't try this at home, kids. Sana is (apparently) superhuman.

Here's some mini tattoodles I really loved doing... and had forgotten to post until now (including a healed Umbreon). Thank you so much to all you sweet adopters of my wannado(odle)s! ILU!! 🥰

Making Waves

Thank you so much, Hanne, for being open to my rather abstract interpretation of your watery wish (I so enjoy doing stuff like this!), let alone traveling all the way from Scotland and sitting for... pretty much an eternity. 😗 You are amazing!! 💙💙💙

Halloween Flash Day Recap

Better late than never: thanks again to everyone who came to our Halloween Flash Day last Saturday! I think we were all positively overwhelmed by the enthusiasm with which it was received, with so many people even traveling for it from outside Berlin (and being way early and ready for queues, as if we were Berghain XD). I'm so grateful for the lovely people I got to tattoo - and the wonderful humans who came by to adopt one of my designs already for a future appointment (can't wait!!).💖

The downside of a very full, busy Strelki was that a) I couldn't possibly spend as much time as I'd have liked to chill and chat forever with each one of you and b) it was very hard to find a spot to take well-lit photos... I'm not particularly happy with the photographic quality, but wanted to post some results anyway, for celebration purposes. ☺️

Growtober #31: LEARNING something

That one's a life-long learning effort for me, really.

Also: I made it!!! My brain effectively forced me to do every single day of #growtober, even in fatally stressful times!!🥲🎉😂

Some of you already asked if I'm gonna sell the originals again, like last year, and yes I will! I'll prepare an extra post about it once I have scanned them all in etc, so stay tuned. (Like last time, Patreon supporters will get first dibs, a little discount, plus for the respective tiers a PDF collection of all pieces.) :)

Thank you for following along and leaving comments and messages - the interaction with and feedback from you makes these monster projects so much more rewarding for me.💖

Growtober #30: FORGIVING yourself

Why are we always so much harder on ourselves than we'd be on others?

Growtober #29: APPRECIATING something

I do appreciate a whole lot of things. And you, what did you appreciate today?

Growtober #28: BE THERE for each other

A bit late because yesterday's Halloween Flash Day at our studio was (positively) too busy. Also, once again, kinda perfect topic for the day.

I'm so grateful for my lovely friends at 4_Strelka - and all the wonderful people who find their way to me and trust me with their (often so personal) projects. It makes me truly so SO happy that I get to do creative fun stuff on people's skin, help them feel (even) better and happier in it, build connections, and spend such joyful, intimate (even if sometimes also painful) times with them and have that be my job. Thank you!! 💖💖💖
