From Greece to New York: An Artist's Journey
Have you ever felt like your dreams were just out of reach? That was me.
My love for art began in my childhood in a small but graphic city in Greece. From a very small age, I found myself fascinated with the art of painting. However often as an adult the reality hits you and in my case, financial struggles forced me to follow different paths and work various jobs, such as a cleaner, barista waitress and many more to support myself and my family. These challenges meant putting the love of painting or even studying fine arts on permanent hold, but my passion for the art never faded.
A Life-Changing Encounter
Then, everything changed when I met my mentor. A man who didn’t just see me but saw the artist I could become. His passion for tattoos opened a door I never knew existed. With his support, I realized tattooing wasn’t just art; it was storytelling. It was a way to take someone’s journey, their emotions, and their dreams and transform it into an incredible art that they could wear forever. If this is not the ultimate form of art I don't know what it is. The path was far from easy.
Back then was so difficult to find any informations about how to tattoo and even if you were lucky and found I didn’t speak English, which made accessing the wealth of any information available online almost impossible. George, seeing something that I couldn’t see for myself, dedicated himself to finding a solution to any problem that arose he scanned the internet and translated any valuable resources about tattoo art. We spent countless nights learning, practicing, and pushing through every obstacle. It was messy, exhausting, and at times, overwhelming. But every drop of effort was worth it.

Crafting Unique Tattoos
From painting in a small corner of Greece now standing on the biggest tattoo stage across the world. Winning over 30 international awards at global conventions. I’ve proven that even the most unlikely paths can lead to extraordinary places. I became the first woman tattoo artist from Greece to receive a U.S. Extraordinary Ability Green Card for MY Art, not because I had the perfect tools, but because I refused to give up.
Today, tattoo magazines rave about my work, calling it “Lifelike creations that mesmerize with stunning color realism.” My tattoos don’t just adorn the skin; they tell stories, bursting with vibrant colors and intricate details that captivate the eye. Each piece is a unique transformation, turning personal tales into visually stunning art that beautifully enhances the human canvas.
