Tattoo Artist

Nadine Harvey is an editorial tattoo artist working out of a private studio in California. Eight years deep into the craft, she draws every design entirely from scratch. Before picking up a tattoo machine, Nadine spent years refining details by hand with black ink and graphite. Today, her work lives in five styles: black and grey realism, fine line, anime, horror, and illustration. While diverse on paper, these styles share a unified logic on the body. They are slow, intentional, and built to age well. Nadine focuses on the long version of tattoo art rather than fleeting trends. Taking only a limited number of pieces per month, she consults with every client to ensure each appointment is built around one person, one idea, and one session. Outside the studio, Nadine models for brand projects and writes extensively about the tattoo process, aftercare, and the unseen craft of the industry.
