PARKER

Pronouns: they/them

Books always open!

Parker loves tattooing silly critters and anything nature inspired. Their favorite styles to tattoo are woodcut/scrimshaw inspired linework pieces, illustrative black and gray, and smaller full color illustrative pieces. Parker does not tattoo faces or necks, and does not currently do large pieces (sleeve, full back).

Hi! My name’s Parker. I’m a Capricorn sun, Aries moon, Leo rising, and my pronouns are they/them!

My family is originally from Greenville, SC but in 2008 we moved to a little town outside of Athens, so I’ve been in the area for a pretty good chunk of time. In 2018 I earned my BFA in sculpture from UGA and hung around in Athens for about a year or so before I began my tattooing career at a shop in Gainesville. After finishing my apprenticeship I began working at a shop in Buford, gaining a lot of experience very quickly since it was such a busy shop. Though everything was alright I really missed Athens, and amazingly things lined up perfectly for me to come back to my favorite place and join the team at Pink Goblin! I love tattooing detailed linework pieces, pepper shaded florals and animals, and scrimshaw-style work, which has quickly become my favorite style of tattooing! When not creating art on paper or skin I love doing any sort of woodworking, particularly carving spoons, and just vibing with my girlfriend Alison.
