Birds birds birds!! Sheet # 1!! I’ve been studying up birds and learning as much as I can about them through drawing. These designs will all be handpoked. Pieces are non-repeatable and I am happy to custom draw specific bird species as well! Just submit a custom request for them I will also be guest tattooing in Victoria on Tuesday Feb 17 (Location TBD) And Montreal in April! (Dates and location TBD) You can submit a request for Vancouver @slowside.studio Victoria and Montreal now through the link in my bio! . . . #vancouverislandtattoo #montrealtattoo #vancouvertattooartist #yvrtattoo

Hi All! I figured its been a while since I've done a self intro so here's a bit about me for my followers new and old. My name is Kimmy, I am self taught handpoke tattoo artist born and raised in Vancouver to immigrant parents from Hong Kong. I work out of @wavelength.tattoo a private collaborative studio in downtown vancouver. I specialize in fine line soft microrealism that focus on the nature around us and Chinese imagery. My work focuses on capturing the feeling of nostalgia, awe and wonder. Some fun facts about me: 🌞 Climbing is my lifeblood, especially outdoors I do almost every type from bouldering to trad (not ice climbing yet but one day.....) 🌞 I work as a part time pediatric respiratory therapist in intensive care. Ask me anything about my career! 🌞 I am a high functioning neurodivergent anxious being. Rest assured it is extremely unlikely I"ll find you weirder than myself. 🌞 Food and drinks is my love language I honestly can't believe the amount of people I've connected with through this career. Tattooing is the single most incredible thing to have happened to me. Every day I work towards becoming a better artist and every day I surprise myself as I continue to push my boundaries to create something more. I'm excited to meet all of you and hear your stories as we collaborate to create beautiful things. -Kimmy 📸@kelseykuehnemuth . . . #handpokeartist #vancouverartist #yvrartist #vancouversticknpoke #yvrtattoo #vancouvertattoo #sticknpoke #stickandpoke #handpoked #tattooartist #vancouvertattooartist #yvrtattooartist #femaletattooartist #asiantattooartist #bipoctattooartist
