International Tattoo Artist Collective

Alma Art House

International Tattoo
Artist Collective

An intentional collective of fine art tattooers working across California, Washington, and France. We believe tattoos create moments of transformation, turning the body into a living altar through ritual, marking who you've been and who you're becoming.

Each piece is a collaboration between artist and client, rooted in artistry and self-expression. Every artist in this collective shares a commitment to ethical practice, intentional design, and the transformative power of permanent art.

Fine LineAbstractGeometricSketchOrganic / Fluid

An LA native and self-taught artist, Alex has fallen head over heels in love with tattooing. Her style spans fine line, abstract, geometric, sketch, and organic/fluid work, executed exclusively in black and grey wash. Vegan for 8+ years and a lover of the outdoors, Alex's designs are often inspired by nature and the not-so-occasional existential crisis. She offers pre-drawn flash, custom, and freehand designs, each one a quiet conversation between the natural world and the body it will live on.

Sammi Lee

OrnamentalBlack & GreyIllustrativeBotanicalFine Line

Tucked only a few blocks from Vancouver's waterfront district, Sammi Lee's private studio is bright and welcoming, with a cozy, creative vibe that feels like home. Sammi creates tattoos that blur the line between fine art and personal expression. Inspired by nature and symbolism, her work often tells a story, but sometimes it's simply about creating something beautiful and ornamental to live on your skin. For Sammi, tattooing is about honoring moments in time. She is drawn to the balance between light and dark, the eternal and the impermanent, and the way ink can hold both beauty and gravity at once. Whether it's a piece filled with deep meaning or one chosen for the joy of its form, her approach is always custom, thoughtful, and rooted in artistry. Every tattoo becomes part of your story, whether it's a symbolic marker of change or an ornamental piece that makes you feel more at home in yourself.

Abstract FlowMinimalistOrganic

My tattoos are not just marks on skin; they're expressions of life in motion, abstract, minimal, and full of quiet energy. Drawing inspiration from the hidden movements of wildlife, I create designs that feel alive, shifting with the wearer's body and spirit. Beyond tattooing, I dive into other forms of expression, photography, pottery, and more, exploring how different mediums can capture the unseen and the fleeting. For me, art is an exploration of the world's subtle rhythms, and I'm always seeking new ways to bring them to light.

What We Stand For

Why you can trust
every artist in this house

This is not a directory. It is a curated house. Every artist here has been personally vetted by Justine Almaraz and shares a common foundation: a commitment to fine art standards, ethical practice, and the belief that tattooing is a form of permanent, sacred artistry. Membership is earned, not purchased.

I

Soulful Precision

The marriage of deep empathy with rigorous fine art technique. Our work is not merely technical, it is compositional, intentional, and rooted in a genuine relationship with the person wearing it. Every line carries meaning.

II

Radical Empathy

We hold space for complex physical and emotional transformations. Whether a client arrives carrying the weight of surgery, grief, or simply a desire to mark a turning point, every artist in this collective is trained to meet them with care, presence, and skill.

III

Elevated Legacy

We are building something generational. Each artist in this collective is part of a living lineage, committed to passing the craft forward with integrity. We do not chase trends. We build enduring work.

What Makes Us Different

Curated. Intentional. Rare.

Most collectives are open directories. Ours is not. The Alma Art House International Tattoo Artist Collective is a small, deliberately curated roster of artists who share a common philosophy and a common standard of work.

Each artist maintains their own distinct voice and visual language while upholding the founding standards of the house: ethical client relationships, inclusive practice across all bodies and skin tones, and a commitment to fine art quality in every piece.

Our Shared Standards

Fine Art Foundation

Every artist brings a fine art sensibility to their tattooing practice, treating the body as a living canvas worthy of compositional care.

Ethical Client Practice

We do not rush, oversell, or compromise. Every consultation is a conversation, and every piece is designed for the specific person wearing it.

Inclusive by Design

Our artists are trained to work beautifully across all skin tones, body types, and life experiences. All are welcome and celebrated.

Lineage and Accountability

Artists in this collective are connected through shared education and shared values, especially high standards in Blood-borne Pathogen control and Hospital Hygiene practices. We hold each other to our highest standards, and we stand behind each other's work.
