Neo Traditional Tattoo artist Hamilton Ontario

Bridget is a tattoo artist at GRIM Studios in Hamilton, Ontario, and somehow manages to be both tiny and an absolute powerhouse. She brings a dangerous amount of talent and personality in a very small package and has been quietly wrecking expectations ever since she picked up a machine.

​

She completed a full two-year apprenticeship at GRIM Studios and has been tattooing full time for nearly two years. Her work is rooted in traditional and neo-traditional tattooing, with a growing personal style built on bold linework, strong colour, and classic tattoo fundamentals that actually hold up over time.

​

Bridget tattoos with intention. Whether she’s working on custom designs or flash, her work is thoughtful, well-executed, and built to heal beautifully — the kind of tattoos that still look good long after the Instagram phase wears off.

​

Outside the studio, Bridget can usually be found at festivals with her partner and friends, or at home with her cats, whom she loves a completely reasonable and normal amount (which is to say: a lot). She is famously in bed by 8pm, has been known to steal salami from Memphis’ house (long story, you should absolutely ask her about it), and has an unmatched ability to disappear the second a camera comes out.

​

She grew up locally and somehow has more friends than everyone else in the shop combined — probably times five (with the exception of her sister, who also works at the shop as a piercing apprentice and is equally cool, so she doesn’t count).

Bridget may be small and cute as hell, but make no mistake — she’s a serious artist with real skill, and she’s only getting better.
