I went to North Ink with an idea for a tattoo and met with Diana. She talked me through it and let me know what would and wouldn't work with my design and preferred size. She was fantastic. She knows her stuff and was able to explain the perils of fine line tattoos clearly and help me do some redesign that would work. I absolutely LOVE the end result and I know it will continue to look great thanks to her knowledge and skill. I highly recommend Diana at North Ink if you're looking to get a tattoo!

I had Diana and my experience was incredible! Even know I booked last minute and I wasn't completely set on what I wanted, she fit me into her busy schedule. She listened to what I wanted and created a beautiful tattoo. The whole experience was lovely and healed something in me. I have many tattoos, but this one is by far my favourite and I will cherish it forever. The shop and everyone was just great all around. I'll be back for sure.

I got my first tattoo from Diana and had an amazing experience. I was a little scared at first, but she was super helpful, patient, and made me feel completely comfortable. The tattoo turned out even better than I expected! She did an incredible job. Definitely recommend her to anyone looking to get a tattoo.

Alex is a true professional. The process was collaborative, and he understood what I liked and wanted. It was a coverup which was challenging and we overcame it! I absolutely love it!
Stacey Copeland
I had Diana do this piece for me! Absolutely stunninggg!! I flew in from Calgary and she was so accommodating considering I wasn’t able to come in person for the consultation. Everything was easily communicated through her instagram @tattoo.vancouver ☺️ When I did get to the shop we just had to determine the size and print stencils. As this was a 5 hour session, Diana made sure we took breaks as needed and stayed nourished & hydrated. She made me feel very comfortable throughout the whole experience and left me with and incredible piece of art that I will cherish forever ❤️

I was a walk in customer. I did call ahead but they said they would fit me in. I got two pieces done in the same appointment by Diana. She was friendly and had good ideas when it came to fonts and placement. They have healed very nicely as well. I am still obsessed with them. Will definitely get more from here. She also accomodated my friend who came with me and decided to get one during my session. Thanks Diana.

Diana was incredible, I am so unbelievably happy with how well she took my idea and made it into the design it became. Can't wait to return for more. Highly recommend this studio.
Ciaran Welland
Diana was incredible! From the initial consultation, she treated my concept with the respect and thoughtfulness it deserved. The technical skill displayed by her is truly next-level. The line work on my arm is impeccably crisp, saturated, and bold. She helped me with suggestions about the size and placement to make sure it looked its best. The environment of the studio is relaxing and welcoming. If you are looking for an artist and a studio that treats your body, your story, and the art itself with the highest level of technical skill and professionalism, this is the only place to go.

Most people get their first tattoo 'wrong.' Not because it looks bad, but because they haven't learned how to work with an artist yet. I’ve been tattooing since 2013, and I want to help you skip the 'beginner' phase and get straight to the magic. The Beginner Usually it goes like this. The first tattoo is something small and simple. Pain is a concern, commitment feels scary, so people play it safe. Then, gradually, tattoos get bigger and more complex.…
Introduction This is going to be the ultimate tattoo healing instruction you’ll find anywhere on the web. We’ll touch on the fundamentals of a tattoo healing process and walk through different methods we can use these days to take proper care of our tattoos. Okay, let’s start with the boring stuff that you might already know, but we’ll repeat it anyway. Our main issue and the biggest topic related to tattoo healing is infections—because this is the biggest problem you…
Why Tattoos Peel After a Few Days After you get a tattoo, a few days later, it starts peeling. Why does it happen, and what should you do? Let’s go back to some fundamentals: Our skin is layered and grows from the inside. Skin cells are generated on the inner levels, they’re quite watery and full of fluids, and slowly they move up and dry out. The top layer of our skin is basically dead skin cells. It’s like a…
When I tell people I own a tattoo shop, they assume it’s because of my love for tattoos. The truth? I’m obsessed with building great businesses. Tattoos are an amazing product, but what excites me the most is creating a shop that runs smoothly, serves clients well, and gives artists a great place to work. Although I started my first shop six years ago as a tattoo artist, I quickly realized that while doing tattoos is fun, my real passion…
When I moved to Vancouver and started tattooing here, I found the concept of hourly rates a bit unusual. It’s not just tattoo artists—plumbers, electricians, and basically anyone working in a trade often charges hourly. On one hand, I understand the logic behind it. You don’t need to reinvent the wheel; as the saying goes, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” However, I’m currently in a position where I don’t have to build my business from scratch or…
A Rollercoaster of Challenges and Lessons We did it! We finally got our business license. Wohoo! But man, the road to this milestone wasn’t easy. As my first blog post, I want to share the journey with you — raw, real, and maybe a bit ridiculous. Migrating to Canada? Challenging. Migrating to Canada and opening a business at the same time? You’d have to be an idiot like me to try it. Looking back, I probably should’ve waited a bit…
A large chest tattoo has become very popular among those who invest effort in building a muscular and toned body. There’s no doubt that a great chest tattoo draws people’s eyes to the chest, abdomen, and shoulders. So, if you’ve put significant effort into shaping your upper body, a chest tattoo can enhance your efforts to stand out. On the other hand, you always have the option to keep your chest tattoo hidden, as it can remain concealed under clothing…
