Ash Reid

A Richmond local, Ash studied at Virginia Commonwealth University and obtained her degree in scientific and botanical illustration. After a short time in her tattoo career, Ash was quick to find a home in black and grey dotwork imagery. She loves creating tattoos that tell a story. Her work is inspired by nature and fantasy, by the organic, whimsical, and macabre. She also loves to freehand botanical tattoos, drawing all sorts of flowers and plants right onto the skin. Her room at the shop is a small garden, covered in greenery and trinkets. When not tattooing, Ash spends time practicing yoga, rock climbing, paddle boarding, and strolling around the city with her corgi, Bear.
