VELMA is a licensed & Insured Tattoo Artist in Washington serving the Vancouver & Portland OR Area since 2011.
I was born in Vancouver, Washington and have deep roots in the community, with family all over the PNW. In 2011, I moved to Portland to learn tattooing. I came back to this side of the river in 2018 and opened Arboretum Studios in 2019. I primarily focus on nature-themed tattoos, but also love abstract ornamental designs and absolutely anything based in fantasy or psychedelia.
