Lauren Purson

Currently Lauren’s books are closed. Lauren will post on her instagram,  @Laurensanartist, when she will be opening her books again.

Lauren has dreamed of being a tattoo artist ever since she was an angsty 14 year old with blue hair who wore too much eyeliner.

Now, over a decade later, she’s established herself in the tattoo industry, her eyeliner skills have greatly improved, and she still has blue hair.

Some things never change.

Lauren got her start in 2013 as an apprentice and has been honing her craft ever since. She’s worked at a couple of different shops both north and south of Atlanta, and has had the opportunity to learn from several talented artists throughout the years.

She enjoys tattooing a variety of subjects and styles, but some of her favorites include florals/plant life, animals, bugs/insects, mandalas, jewel and lace work, dot work, neo-traditional/illustrative pieces, semi-realism, and full color pieces. Lauren is also a sucker for anything spooky, witchy, or Halloween-esque.

When she’s not tattooing, you’ll most likely find Lauren on her couch cuddling with her many fur-babies, probably binge watching Parks and Rec for the millionth time. On the rare occasion that she does decide to leave the comfort of her home, she enjoys going to concerts and trying new restaurants. Of course, her favorite hobbies all involve art. Lauren enjoys drawing, painting, and even dabbles in a bit of taxidermy and special effects makeup. But of course, her favorite medium to work with is ink and skin.
