What are your specialties?
I specialize in fine-line botanical pieces and minimalist designs.

When did you start with your art?
I started being creative at a young age but in terms of tattooing, I did my first piece on human skin around late 2019.

How did you start?
Art has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I picked up a paintbrush at 5 years old and never looked back, even dabbling in competitions during my teenage years. As I grew, so did my style, and I even started making some cash on the side from commissions. Then, in 2018, something clicked when I landed my first tattoo design gig – suddenly, I was hooked. It was a pivotal moment that ignited a deep-seated fascination with tattoos and tattooing.  After some research, I took the plunge and got my first tattoo kit. And that’s where the tattooing journey began and brought me to becoming inkedbyshella.

Profession besides being an artist?
I am a Premium Learning Advisor in a Fortune 500 company in Makati, and an owner of a Self-Shoot Photo studio in Cavite. I also work part-time as a Licensed Psychometrician consultant for Research (on-call). More importantly amongst all these careers, I am a Full-time fur mom of 2 cats and 1 dog ♥
