About

Hello,
My name is Xaramar (Mars is good too), and I’m a tattoo artist in SE Portland. I share a studio with my close friends Ollie (hournoon) and Ivy (ivy.alchemist) called Chimera, located in the Central Eastside.

I have been drawing for as long as I can remember, first originally inspired by the art and storytelling of anime and western cartoons ( and I still am to this day). My favorite mediums are gouache, colored pencil, and acrylic. I use Clip Studio for all my digital work. 

When I'm not tattooing, I enjoy cooking for my friends and partner, playing video games, working on personal art projects, and going to as many concerts as I can. I'm an avid figure/ trinket collector and an indulger of all things sentimental. I have two cats (Basil and Mango) who are also my business agents and ambassadors. 

FAQ:
Where is your studio located?

Our studio is located at 1327 SE Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. in Portland, Oregon

Are tips expected?
No, but they are always appreciated :) I also accept non- monetary tips like trinkets/ shiny things, crafts, and foods

Are you allergic to anything?
No, not that I know of

How are your prints made?:
My prints are risographs that I printed myself at the IPRC. 

Can I get your work tattooed by someone else?
No, but you can totally request that I travel to where you are.

Would you tattoo another artists work?
If you have commissioned work from someone else to be tattooed or have written permission from an artist for their work to be tattooed, then I am definitely open to the idea!! If you're wanting a tattoo of art from a piece of media like anime, comics, or famous artworks/ brands/ mascots, then I am 100% for it :)
