WITH PRECISION, I AM BLURRING THE BOUNDARIES BETWEEN REALITY AND IMAGINATION, CHALLENGING THE PAST, ENGAGING THE PRESENT AND REDEFINING THE FUTURE.




WITH PRECISION, I AM BLURRING THE BOUNDARIES BETWEEN REALITY AND IMAGINATION, CHALLENGING THE PAST, ENGAGING THE PRESENT AND REDEFINING THE FUTURE.
I enjoy tattooing bold blackwork, color neotraditional, woodcut, and light stipple shaded pieces. Oftentimes the subject matter of these tattoos revolve around outdoor inspiration, fantasy themes pulled from book series’, and strange antique art.
Testimonial
"Sylvia is an AMAZING artist, she made me feel so comfortable and her communication was impeccable. All of the artists at Rest in Roses are talented, kind, and worth checking out. I’ve already been back for another tattoo and will be back again. Seriously check them out!"

Testimonial
I’ve been going to Sylvia for years and will continue to give her all my money and recommend her to all my friends looking for anything in neo trad, black work, or woodcut. Her rates ($150/hr as of Dec 2024) are very competitive for this area considering the incredible quality you receive. RIR opened in Sep of 2023 and is constantly growing and perfecting the shop. It’s immaculately clean, music/movies are always playing in the background, and everyone at the shop is friendly. Including a partially finished piece and it looks phenomenal even at this stage. 100/5 stars forever
