PNDWTR 2023 Update:
I am slowing down my practice ~ I am only able to take a handful of sessions this year.
if you submit a booking form, I may not be able to respond to you at all, or it may take some time. This could be weeks, months, or years. Though, everything just may align, and this medicine may find us both.
thank you for holding trust in my process.
I leave my books open for those messages that need to find me, whenever they are ready, and whenever I am ready.

Thank you for finding my practice ~ this is a booking form to share what has been coming threw for you --
you are welcome to share as much or as little as you wish.
The majority of my practice is custom tattooing work, though sometimes I release pre-made designs on my Instagram, I experiment with creating openings for artworks to come through, then find their body.
my tattooing practice holds a place for grief, and for healing. Celebrations of survival, the gifts of pain, and the weaving medicine onto the skin as a way of protection.
A Consultation provides an intentional space to begin the design process and delve into stories, symbols, and imagery to inform and inspire your tattoo. Consultations can take place over zoom or in-person, in the studio or on a walk somewhere on the island ~
You may also request to have a Freeform session. This is a session that would involve no prior consultation and instead entails creating a design collaboratively in the studio during your tattoo session. This process requires trust and patience but can be an incredibly powerful way to unearth a tattoo.
Payment:
Pondwater Tattoo uses the sliding scale payment model for all tattooing work:
More info on the sliding scale can be found on @pondwatertattoo instagram highlights and on pondwaterstudio.com
If you are black &/or indigenous payment is optional.
This work is medicine, this healing is shared.
