5-Star Reviews from Clients Across Halifax, Nova Scotia & Atlantic Canada

I had an incredible experience with Roy for my second tattoo, a piece that was deeply meaningful and marked 10 years since my first sleeve. It represents a lot of growth, change, and where I’m headed in life, so choosing the right artist really mattered.

Roy exceeded every expectation. Their fine line work is exceptional, and they have a real gift for collaborating…taking your ideas and elevating them into something even more special. I felt completely at ease throughout the process. They’re quietly focused, which I found really grounding, and it allowed the experience to feel intentional and unforced.

By the end, we shared some really meaningful conversation, and overall it was the best tattoo experience I’ve ever had. Roy combines incredible skill with genuine kindness and attention to detail. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

As a Visual Artist

I’m a Halifax-based visual artist in Nova Scotia. Figurative and atmospheric painter who creates powerful, commissioned portraits with gender-fluid explorations that capture moments of vulnerability and strength. Drawing inspiration from my life experiences and the rugged beauty of the East Coast, I also paint plein air watercolours across East Coast Atlantic Canada and experiment with new materials in mixed-media sculpture. Every piece is crafted to challenge the imagination and reveal unexpected beauty. Contact me to commission a painting or tattoo.
