  • Micro realism

Nora opened SWP Tattoo Studio in 2014 after a decade of apprenticing and guest spots across the Midwest. Her work is light, precise and quiet: single-needle script, pressed-flower botanicals and small symbols that sit naturally on the body.

Every design starts on paper. Nora sketches around your placement, then spaces the lines so they stay crisp as the skin ages. She keeps her books small so each client gets an unhurried consultation and a design nobody else will wear.
