Whom am I?

My name is Donna Klein, pleased to meet you!

I have been Tattooing Professionally since 2007, primarily in the Chicago and St. Louis Area. I have travelled for years actively in the Tattoo Convention circuit and guest spotting across the country.

Most of the years in my career, I have spent in Walk-In style tattoo shops - which has demanded and made my artistry extremely diverse. There was no picking and choosing - you had to take whatever walked in the door.

With experience over almost two decades, I’ve gotten to see how tattoos heal over time. I’ve witnessed tattoos that I have done be worn everyday for years and years. I’ve seen the trends and styles come and go. I know what works when it comes to tattooing to look good and last for a lifetime.

I love approaching tattooing in many forms, specializing in Traditonal Tattooing, Various Line Works, Black Work, Geometric, Rescue Missions (those pesky Cover-Ups and Reworks most people won’t touch), and Color Blending.

I have dedicated my life to tattooing. I have chased knowledge however far I needed to go and will continue to until the day comes to put my machine down.
