    Thank you for the most amazing day yesterday with myself and my girlfriend. My foot tattoo representing my two grandkids exceeded my expectations. You bring the mixture of great technique and incredible customer service together in one package. You truly listened to what I wanted, you envisioned it and then created it. Then you made the experience so totally fun and awesome!
    Thank you!
    I would recommend you to anyone!

  4. Christine, thank you for the wonderful flower addition to my initial tattoo. I really didn’t know what I wanted the outcome to be and you nailed it. I love your work! Thank you!

  6. Christine…Thank you so much for my 2 beautiful tattoo’s. You do excellent work & I love them! Thinking of what to do next, maybe a cover-up on 2 I don’t like. Thanks again!!!

  7. Hey Christine, my son and I are so pleased with our memory tattoos. I think of my mom everytime I look at my wrist. And my son, with my mom’s name on his arm is beautiful. We’ve told many people your talent!

  8. My daughter is graduating in June she wants a tattoo on her belly by her indie line. Can we have your email Christine to send a couple pics to see if u can do?

  9. Hi Christine, a few years ago you designed a piece for me that I ❤️ – “she persisted” as flower stems going into flowers. Now i’d like to add a periwinkle (the flower, not the snail) on my right shoulder (or maybe my forearm). I’d like to do it over the summer so it can heal before school starts. Is that possible?

    • I schedule repeat clients on the 1st of every month for the following month and new clients on the 2nd if there’s any availability left. I recommend messaging me via Facebook or email (tattoo.obscura@gmail.com) as early as possible on the 1st and we can see what I have available for august!
