Sham is a lifelong artist and emerging tattooer whose favorite part of tattooing has been the meaningful collaboration between herself and people to create intentional and long lasting designs. They’ve been honing their fine line, florals, and script, with a growing focus on bold blackwork & would love to move forward taking on more abstract and large-scale black and grey pieces. While they do offer color, their preference leans monochrome.
Sham is always excited to explore new styles and help make your dream tattoo a reality, but prioritizes quality and integrity by only accepting work she can confidently execute and will refer to another artist if necessary.
Sham would love to do more: illustrative, blackwork, surrealism, large scale lettering, scenic black and grey, bold blackwork, neo-traditional

“Incredibly kind and patient artists! My family and I got matching tattoos on a walk-in day and the experience was amazing. Be prepared to wait during walk-in days as these are pretty popular. Ambiance was nice, they have free snacks and water, a comfy waiting room, and a clean bathroom w/ hygiene products. Great place to get a first tattoo :). Thank you Sarah and Sham!!”

“I came in for their Walk in Sunday and was first up. Sham was absolutely amazing and has been the most considerate tattoo artist I have ever had. They let me know each time there was a needle change and that I would feel a difference. We went through a colored tattoo on the fly and Sham stopped each step of the way to let me check it out and give suggestions. I am 100% going to come back when I visit again.”

“I had a tattoo done here about a month ago with Sham and it was an amazing experience! Sham was so patient, considerate, and helpful as she worked with me. She explained everything she was doing and told me about every single needle change. She also checked in with me consistently on how I was feeling, and how I was feeling about the progress of the tattoo. I felt so comfortable and at home! The space is also absolutely beautiful and well taken care of. The passion and care of all the artists here is so evident through their service and space. Im already thinking of coming back for my next tattoo!”

“I have gotten 2 tattooes with Sham now. Both of them are amazing! Sham is so sweet and helpful. She's great at her work, especially masterfully mixing my ideas with her artistry”
— Kelsey M. 5/25 (google)
“This place is great! I’m not a very experienced tattoo-getter, and I was made to feel really comfortable here from scheduling online to my experience in the studio. I got tattooed by Sham! I got one tattoo originally and ended up going back a month later for another one that complements the first one. Sham took tons of time to make sure I liked the design and placement and fully realized my vision.
Update: I went back for my 3rd tattoo from Sham and I'm obsessed. I love it so much! She fully brought my vision to life.”
— Nicole LP 1/26 (google)
“Sham was an absolute gem and made the whole experience super fun. She did an absolutely amazing job on my tattoo and I will definitely be coming back next time I’m in Portland.”
