A lifelong artist, Aria has a BFA in Painting, was a fellowship artist at Vermont Studio Center Residency, and is a featured artist in multiple publications including New American Paintings. She found a deep connection between painting and tattooing in 2023 which made her fall in love with the art and intimacy of tattooing.

Her focus on color and detail in her paintings has translated into her work tattooing, loving to experiment, play, and create designs that perfectly fit within the more malleable canvas of a body.

Her passion lies in vividly colored illustrative and realistic designs as well as soft blends of smooth black and grey in her floral, portraiture, and illustrative work. She loves creating custom designs and borrows from her decades of knowledge in art history, painting composition, and color theory to make work that is unique and draws the eye.
