Artist spotlight: @secculent 🦋
“I am a queer tattoo artist from “Vancouver” working at Slowside Studio, I have my own illustrative style, and I love drawing anything nature related. Outside of tattooing I work on my linocuts to make prints, tees, and totes, or anything i really feel inspired by! I work solo on everything so each item is made with love 100% by me. 🧡 Thanks so much! I hope you enjoy!”
We are excited to have @secculent bringing their wares to the market on November 23 ✨
