SHANNON
ARTIST IN CHAPEL HILL
AND DURHAM
Tattooing since 2010, Shannon is a Florida-born artist with a foundation in fine art and a lifelong obsession with creating. She earned her Bachelor of Fine Art in Studio Art from Florida State University, where she sharpened her technical skills and developed a deep respect for composition and craftsmanship. Her tattoo work centers around traditional, fine line, and illustrative styles, blending bold structure with refined detail.
Over the years, tattooing has taken Shannon across the world, working in diverse studios and cultures that continue to shape her approach to the craft. She has owned tattoo shops in both California and Florida, and has shown her work at DreamWorks Animation Studios as well as at tattoo conventions internationally—opportunities that have continued to shape her growth as both an artist and business owner.
Outside of tattooing, Shannon explores watercolor painting as a way to stay loose, experimental, and connected to the fundamentals of art. She loves to travel and draw inspiration from new places and people. Outside the studio, she’s grounded by family—happily married, raising a baby girl and two stepkids—and by singing, an outlet that keeps her connected to rhythm and raw emotion.
