Path
- At 11 and 12 she found body art and was already tattooing skin, working from sketches and graphic designs.
- In August 2025, at 16, she took part in the 13th International Tattoo Convention Bucharest at Berăria H and set the convention’s age record. She gave interviews about her path, including one for Blanaru’s Vlog on TattooTV.
- In January 2026 she began drawing a large following by publishing complex tattoo transformation processes.
- In August 2026, at 17, she returned to INKORA, Live Tattoo Art and Music Festival, at Berăria H in Bucharest. She placed 4th in Best of Color Small/Medium and 3rd in Best of New School.
Styles
The work is not limited to one style.
- New School and watercolor: saturated colour, painterly washes, and a line that still reads after the piece heals.
- Fine line and minimal: fine lines, geometry, micro tattoos and calligraphic lettering.
- Black and grey realism: human and animal portraits, fine shading and clean gradients.
- Neo-traditional and colour: small and large designs with solid, vivid colour.
- Cover-ups: old, damaged or poorly done tattoos, redrawn and covered in full.
Every piece starts as a unique stencil, built or adjusted digitally before the session. Nothing comes from a catalogue. Send the idea, the placement and the size; you get a sketch and a date, held with a deposit. Needles and pigment caps are single-use, reusable tools are autoclave-sterilised, and each client gets a covered station.
A cover-up does not mean hiding who you were — it means honoring who you have become. When art is made with a purpose, the body no longer carries a blame; it begins to tell an entirely different story.
