Hello, I’m Glossy

I’ve been in New York City for 12 years and live in Brooklyn (occupied Lenape land) with my dog Tig. This is where my private studio is located. I have been tattooing since 2018 and have cultivated many styles, but have a great passion for portraiture and highly rendered work.

I am classically trained in drawing and painting and received a BFA in Illustration from FIT in 2014.

Giving and receiving tattoos has been a hugely impactful part of my life as a queer Lebanese person.

Anyone who seeks out body modification deserves to feel safe and taken care of by means of trauma awareness and informed consent. Please consider reading through this thorough guideline for tattoo artists and clients written by Tamara Santibañez in collaboration with the Women’s Prison Association.
