Shannon Home (doesn't she sound so cozy?) creates illustrative blackwork tattoos for the odd and peculiar, with a style that lands at the intersection of fairy tales and ghost stories. Her work is mostly, almost entirely black ink. It is intricate, contrasting, stark, and absolutely stunning.
Shannon and I connected on Instagram when I randomly came upon her feed and fell in love with her work. After I convinced her my intentions were pure, she got truly excited about being a part of this project, Ink Medicine Podcast.
This is a beautiful snapshot of another tattooer, an artist, a woman who truly loves what she does. And who also recognizes how aware one has to be to do this work well; and how difficult it is to be both, at once, the holder of our clients' life stories and the needle.
If you are in Denver or making a trip there, if you are odd and peculiar, and perhaps you'd like to be decorated darkly, Shannon is your person.
Shannon Home resides in Denver, Colorado, with her partner and two kids.
