Shelby Strix
Tattoo Artist & Co-Owner
Hi there, my name is Shelby! I’m a walking ball of anxiety and hate pain, so I try to make the tattooing process as calming and pain-free as I can for other people. I’m a huge nerd who loves all things involving nature and animals. My passions include art, video games, and outdoor activities. I’ve been tattooing since 2016, and my favorite kinds of tattoos to do on people are colorful! I love doing nature-based tattoos, cryptids, animals, plants and flowers, vulture culture, pagan and witchy symbolism, cartoons and Disney-based tattoos, video game tattoos, and watercolor tattoos! My hair color changes pretty often, my favorite animal is the common Eastern American toad, and my favorite beverage is anything caffeinated.
@lmwtattoos and I will be tattooing taking walk-ups all weekend at the @wildwoodtattoobeachbash – come see us!! ππ₯°
Huge thanks to @personalody for helping us this weekend!!
I needed to update this. πππ
I need to be more strict with my hourly and minimum. I`ll have a timer here to be able to do that from here on out. π
As of the time posting this, my weekends are currently into mid-October and my weekdays into August.
I will never understand how more people do not mourn for the loss of life, no matter how insignificant it may seem. We are them, they are us. We are the universe experiencing itself.

Disney Beauty and the Beast flash up for grabs! I don`t usually color and shade my flash designs, but I felt this wouldn`t translate as just linework to post. This was originally drawn up for a tattoo that the client is no longer getting. If you are interested in something like this, shoot me a dm! I`m always happy to tattoo something custom! Also always happy to change the colors up for this flash design. π₯°
*Hummingbird and Jake the dog not done by me, they are examples from duckduckgo to show the art style a bit better than how digital translates.
Thanks for looking!

Linguine has been doing so much better since his Addisonian crash a few days before Easter. I had off of work and not a ton to do today, so I was able to get him out and about on his first real adventure today since he`s been feeling better. π Thank you to everyone who reached out to us and to everyone who has been asking about how he`s been doing. We`re just so happy our boy is going to be okay moving forward, and he`s already already started gaining some of that lost weight back. My whole heart right here. π₯°

Sloane asked for a pretty open-ended flower with bi/trans colors. Here`s what I came up with. π₯° I love getting to do colorful pieces. Thanks for your trust, beautiful! To not really look throughout this process is so scary π€£π

Some works-in-progress and smaller projects I`ve been chipping at lately. π
