Hey guys! Mercedez here, aka Cedibaby. I am an artist here at Autotroph Ink as well as it’s proud owner! I have a little over ten years experience tattooing, although many of those years I was also working full-time in the medical field. I am a surgical technologist so sanitation is one of my highest priorities. I’ve dabbled in different art forms my entire life; I am self-taught, and much of my experience has been focused on darker skin tones. Although I specialize in coverups and/or reworking old tattoos, I appreciate all styles and enjoy a challenge. Feel free to reach out so we can discuss working on something for you more specifically!

Hey! My name is Katlyne! I’ve been tattooing since 2019; I’ve had a passion for art since I could hold a pencil and knew by 13 that I wanted to be a tattoo artist. I got into tattooing for portrait work and realism, but I’m open to all styles! I work mainly with realism and I absolutely love doing freehand botanical/nature themed pieces. To me, freehand work is the most rewarding and flows the best with the body. Feel free to contact me and we can brainstorm some art that will be unique to you!

Hey! My name is ren (they/them)! I’ve worked in both performance art and visual art my whole life. My favorite art mediums are graphite and painting, I love working in realism and abstract design. I graduated my apprenticeship from autotroph in october of 2023, and recently received my BA in psychology from UW - Tacoma. I love working in black and grey designs with pops of red. I specialize script whether it be something super simple or more out of the box!
