Jodie
Apprentice
Jodie is one of our apprentice artists at The Cavalier Tattoo, with a passion for turning beautiful artwork into tattoos you'll wear for life. She puts heart and soul into every piece she creates and takes pride in continually developing her craft.
Although she enjoys working in a variety of styles, Jodie is especially drawn to what she calls a "dark but pretty"aesthetic—a blend of dark art, dark realism, and black & grey tattooing with a moody yet elegant feel. She also loves creating pin-up girls and detailed female portraits.
