It’s Been a Big Year—And I Have News to Share!

Writer's picture: Paige Anderson Paige Anderson


Hi there,


Almost a year ago, I took the leap into tattooing, and what a ride it’s been! I’ve grown, learned, and created alongside so many incredible people, and now, I’m ready to share an exciting update: I’m moving my studio to Tacoma!


This new chapter comes with a lot of good things, and I’m so grateful to have you all on this journey with me. There’s so much more to come, and I can’t wait to dive into it together!


 

First off, thank you to everyone who has worked with me in my private studio in downtown Olympia. I’ve loved creating alongside you in that space, and it holds so many special memories. But big things are happening: I’ve officially moved to Noble Studio in downtown Tacoma!


Noble Studio is an incredible collaborative space on the bottom floor of Courthouse Square at 1102 A St, Tacoma WA, and I couldn’t be more excited to join this vibrant, creative community. I’ll be sharing a studio with other talented artists, and I’m really looking forward to the fresh energy and collaboration it will bring.


 

Friday the 13th Event – Don’t Miss It!


I’m excited to be part of the Friday the 13th event at Courthouse Square from 4-10pm. This event is all about creativity, community, and a bit of holiday fun. Expect flash tattoos, tarot readings, hair tinsel, photos with Krampus, art vendors, and food trucks! It’s going to be an amazing time, and I feel so lucky to be joining the talented team at Noble for this event.


I’ll be offering fresh flash designs (follow me @ponderosacreative and Noble at @noblestudio253 to see designs in advance), and all tattoos will be walk-ins only, so it’s a great chance to get a spontaneous tattoo and say hi. Whether you’re getting tattooed or just hanging out, I’d love to see you there and celebrate the start of this exciting new chapter with all of you.


 

How You Can Support Your Tattoo Artist

(That’s Me!)


If you’ve had the pleasure of working with me, here are a few ways you can continue to support me and help grow this journey:


  1. Leave a Review - Reviews are one of the best ways to support a tattoo artist. Leaving a review on platforms like Google, Yelp, or Facebook helps future clients know what to expect and helps me grow as an artist. Please consider sharing your experience at Noble Studio—even if you had your tattoo done in my previous studio, your kind words will mean the world! If you decide to support in just one way this season, this action makes the biggest impact. 


  2. Share on Social Media - It’s free, and it’s one of the most effective ways to support! If you’re happy with your tattoo, share a photo and tag me on social media. Digital word of mouth goes a long way, and it really helps others find me when they’re looking for their next tattoo artist. Also, telling your friends in person is always appreciated!


  3. Send a Surprise from My Supply Wishlist - Being a tattoo artist requires constant art supplies, and if you’re looking for a way to help out, this is a great option. I’ve created a wishlist with things I’d love to upgrade to (plus regular supplies), so if you feel like surprising me, feel free to check it out. It’s a meaningful gesture that I truly appreciate!  And yes, Amazon sucks, so if you’d like to support through supplies but don’t wanna give any money to Jeff Bezos, other shops that carry these products are Painful Pleasures, Ultimate Tattoo Supply, Eternal Taand locally at Steadfast Tattoo. 


  4. Send Healed Pictures - I love seeing how your tattoos have healed and how they’ve become a part of your story. If you have healed photos of your tattoo, please send them my way. It helps me understand how the work holds up over time and also serves as a great way to build my portfolio. Plus, it’s always exciting to see how your tattoos evolve!


  5. Support My Other Art Forms - As many of you know, I’m not just a tattoo artist—I’m a multidisciplinary artist and a mom, which means I stay pretty busy balancing my creative projects. Beyond tattooing, I’m involved in other art forms like quilting, drawing, and community art direction.

    • Another way you can support my work is by donating time or financial resources to Nisqually Reach Nature Center, where I do work in facilities maintenance and art direction. Any contribution helps sustain the arts and environmental programs I’m deeply passionate about. Everything in an artist’s life is interconnected—art, nature, and community feed into each other in ways that make everything more vibrant. One of the big projects I’m currently working on is facilitating a major mural project at Nisqually Reach Nature Center. I’m helping to connect with local artists to plan and execute this exciting community mural. It’s an amazing project, and I’d love for you to stay tuned as it unfolds.

    • Did you know I also have an Etsy shop? For nearly 8 years, I’ve been sharing my love for sewing through quilt patterns, handmade Ponderosa thread gloss, and a variety of other sewing-related goodies. It’s a cozy corner of my creative world where my love for textiles and design comes together. If you’re into quilting, stitching, or just love supporting handmade, come check it out! You might find your next favorite project or tool to add to your sewing kit.


  1. Purchase a Gift Card for Your Loved Ones - Looking for a unique gift for a friend or family member? Consider purchasing a gift card for a tattoo at Noble Studio. Gift cards can be used for flash designs or custom tattoos within my style, and they range from $50 to $500. They’re a great way to give someone the opportunity to get the tattoo they’ve been dreaming of! All gift cards will be redeemed at Noble Studio.

    • Gift cards are valid through 2025, so there’s plenty of time to use them. It’s a thoughtful gift that gives the recipient a chance to choose their own design or pick from my flash collection.


7. Send a coffee via Ko-Fi. if you’re loving my work and want to help keep the ink flowing, consider sending a couple bucks my way on Ko-Fi! Every little bit helps me keep creating and doing what I love, and your support means so much to me— and coffee always rules. There’s even a monthly recurring charge option on ko-fi.

This platform makes it easy to find time slots, check out my portfolio, and keep everything organized. My inbox is also open for custom inquiries for December, January, and February. I’m especially interested in earthy-botanical designs (I’ve been on a Pacific Northwest plant kick lately!) and single-color linework projects. I’d love to hear your ideas and collaborate on something amazing.


 

Lastly, I want to express my sincere gratitude for all of your support. I appreciate each and every one of you for being a part of my creative journey. I’m so excited to continue growing, creating, and collaborating with you in this new space.


Thank you for being a part of this adventure, and I can’t wait to see what 2025 holds!


Best,

Paige Anderson
