Virginia Elwood

Tattooing since 2001, Virginia Elwood specializes in bold colorful work and black and grey portraiture. Her style is influenced by traditional Americana, propaganda posters, textiles and folk art from an array of cultures and time periods. In her artistic practice Virginia attempts to marry the simplicity of traditional tattoos with non-traditional subject matter and mediums including printmaking, sculpture, porcelain painting and other mixed media.
