Katie - Owner of Rain City Ink Started in 2024
I'm Katie, the owner and artist behind Rain City Ink, a private tattoo studio in Seattle specializing in Japanese-inspired work, fine line tattoos, and custom designs. My background combines both formal design education and years of artistic practice, allowing me to approach every tattoo with a strong understanding of composition, balance, and visual storytelling. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Design from Western Washington University, where I developed the creative and technical foundation that continues to influence my work today. That education taught me how thoughtful design can create lasting impact—something I bring into every tattoo I create. I believe getting tattooed should feel personal, comfortable, and collaborative. Whether you're planning your first tattoo, adding to an existing collection, or starting a large-scale project, I work closely with every client to transform their ideas into artwork that feels authentic to them while maintaining strong artistic integrity. When I'm not tattooing, you'll usually find me spending time with my family, playing league of legends, or working on miniature structures. Thank you for trusting me with your ideas, stories, and milestones. I look forward to creating something meaningful together.
"Tattooing has always been more than creating artwork for me. It's about helping people carry something meaningful with them for the rest of their lives."
