MEET THE ARTIST

Roxie.
The first.

Roxie is a tattoo artist, fine artist, and creative entrepreneur based in Hampton, Virginia — recognized as the first Black woman licensed as a professional tattoo artist in the state.

 

Her practice is a study in contrasts: technical precision and emotional generosity, fine-art discipline and street-level honesty. She has spent over a decade building a body of work that treats every client as a collaborator and every piece as a permanent gesture.

 

Beyond the needle, she designs, paints, prints, teaches, hosts creative experiences, and mentors emerging artists — proving that ink is only one of the many languages she speaks fluently.

​

Specializing in color on all skin tones, paper, and canvas. Adding mural artist to her resume.. her aim is directed towards a legacy as a painter alongside of tattoos. She has never done any of this for attention, this is all for ascension.
