Where life meets nature, I find my art.

Hi, I’m Teal, like the color.

I’m an artist based in Hawaii, originally from Montana. I’ve been tattooing for five years, working on the North Shore of Oahu and back home in the mountains, primarily in Missoula.

My work lives between two worlds: delicate florals and illustrated realism. I’m drawn to the dance of life and death, of darkness and light, and to the way humans move through and belong to the natural world.

Outside the studio, you’ll find me in the ocean surfing, on the mountain snowboarding, or following adventure wherever it leads. I’m happiest in wild places, and I treasure time with my family and my dog.

I love what I do and the people I meet along the way. With every project, I hope to connect with you and share space. It’s an honor to talk story with you and to walk alongside you through the process.
