Intentional Tattooing, Crafted with Care

I’m Nastasya, a traveling tattoo artist based in Guatemala, specializing in elegant ornamental tattoos inspired by jewelry and fashion. My work is a blend of fine art and personal expression—each design created with intention to complement your body and story.

What truly defines my practice is the experience I create. I take the time to listen deeply to your vision and intentions, ensuring that the tattoo we design together is a true reflection of you. This collaborative process is at the heart of my artistry.

During the tattoo appointment, I move thoughtfully and patiently—perfecting the stencil placement and continuously tuning in to your desires and comfort. My goal is to make the entire experience feel intentional, professional, and respectful, so that the final piece is as meaningful as it is beautiful.

Traveling allows me to connect with diverse stories and cultures, enriching my artistry and inspiring new designs. Wherever I am, my commitment remains the same: to provide tattoos that feel like lasting adornments—crafted with care, designed to become part of you.

Thank you for considering me to be part of your journey. I look forward to bringing your vision to life.

My Story

Inspired by the traditional methods of tattooing that emphasize intention and intimacy, I began tattooing as a way to connect to others during my travels. Starting as a hand-poke artist, I embraced this gentle technique, valuing its slower pace and the deep connection it fosters between artist and client.

Today, I blend traditional hand-poke techniques with modern machine tattooing—choosing the method that best suits each design and client. Hand-poke allows for a more intimate, intentional experience and is less abrasive on the body, while machine work offers efficiency and precision for larger or more intricate pieces.

As a nomadic tattoo artist working across North, South and Central America, I’ve refined my style and craft alongside my personal and spiritual growth. Living in Guatemala and connecting with diverse cultures has profoundly shaped my artistry, deepening my respect for storytelling through body art.

I am especially inspired by the female form and committed to creating a safe, nurturing space where women can feel fully comfortable receiving permanent body art. My approach is gentle, professional, and rooted in care.

With a background in fashion, design, and science, I bring a unique blend of creativity and understanding of the body to every tattoo I create.

My mission is to evolve the modern tattoo scene into a space that honors intention, safety, and lifelong connection to your body art. I strive to create tattoos that are not only beautiful but deeply aligned with your personal journey—reflecting your story with elegance and care.

I believe tattooing is a sacred practice, a form of adornment and self-expression that deserves respect and thoughtful attention. Through blending traditional and modern techniques, I aim to offer an experience that feels intentional, empowering, and healing.

Together, we’ll create art that you’ll wear proudly for a lifetime.
