Hello! I am Kelsey Marie.

Some might say that you’ll find me wandering around aimlessly searching for my next creative fix while listening to a good folk tune.

Art has always been my way of expressing myself. As far back as I can remember I was always doodling in science and math class instead of paying attention to the lessons and drawing fake tattoo sleeves on my best friends arms during lunch. I started to explore watercolors on canvas in college along with other mixed medias while getting my degree in Art History and would spend all my free time learning how to wire wrap, knit, spin fire poi or whatever else I could use to express myself.

I soon found myself asking, how can I make my passion into what I do for a living! My twin sister had told me about a friend of hers who had a tattoo shop and when I mustered up enough courage to walk into Axiom in Pacific Beach, I was greeted with open arms and a kind hearted soul who I still hold dear to this day, Travis Luckhurst. He pushed my artistic skills and taught me all about the world of tattooing but above of all he taught me how to embrace myself and believe in my talents.

I have been tattooing for just over five years now and enjoy fine line work, geometric patterns, floral pieces, women faces and custom designs!

My goal in my tattooing career is to ensure that each client knows that they have a say in their tattoo! I love to work closely with my clients to make sure that they arrive at the appointment feelings confident in the design they are getting and ready to show it off to the world!

Please know that your voice and creative minds are something I hold dearly, I would love to create something for you that expresses who you are in this universe.

SO, please explore my page and feel free to reach out with any questions!
