Hello! My name is gaia, and thanks for finding your way to my page! I am a San Francisco based tattoo artist with a decade of experience.
I specialize in ornamental and abstract tattoo art: bold and fine-line, dotwork, geometric, mandala, and sigil magick tattoos.
your prayers, embodied
tattooing is an ancient initiation rite, ecstatically endured and enjoyed across the globe since before the construct of civilization. it is a physical manifestation of prayer and intention: magical talismans placed upon the body in order to activate and fortify your holistic being.
bring forth your cosmic markings
to embody your unique expression
here and now.
meet the artist
a traveller at heart, I spent a decade+ meandering the inner and outer worlds, devoted to learning ancient practices of the heart and soul.
guided by my spiritual insight, tattooing naturally integrated my desire to work one-on-one to create magick, both meaningful and beautiful.
tattooing with intention
I aim to support you in your body art upgrade, to create a lifelong artwork that you will celebrate and cherish for the rest of your life.
transforming your ideas, vision, and prayers into a collection of symbols and ornamentation that both compliments your body, and enhances your inner fire.
tattooing as bhakti -devotional practice-
honoring the divine within
by adorning the body without.
