CAT TOWNSEND
Resident Artist

Hey there! My name is Cat. I’m a tattoo artist who specializes in the American Traditional style. I enjoy putting my own twist on the style by defying the “rules” of American Trad, using varying line-weights, bold colors, and stipple shading in most of my work. When I’m not tattooing I’m probably hanging out with my 2 fur babies, Clover and Leia (yes, as is Star Wars). Clover is a long hair brown tabby and Leia is a tri-color Corgi. They both mean the world to me and I will yap endlessly about them if asked! I am a huge Star Wars nerd and will yap about that as well, I would love to do more Star Wars pieces in the future. 

 

I graduated from Pennsylvania College of Art & Design (Lancaster, PA) with a Bachelors in Illustration in 2022. Although I didn’t need a degree to pursue tattooing, I don’t regret the college experience. It was something I always wanted since childhood. It was an amazing time of my life with great people that I will always cherish and carry with me.

 

My goal as a tattoo artist is to create a safe and welcoming atmosphere for my clients, no matter who you are, you’re always welcome in my chair. It can be scary trying to find an artist that resonates with you and makes you feel seen and comfortable, and I strive to always provide the best experience for my clients. I hope to see you in my chair soon!
