KIM DEAKINS

Pronouns: she/her

Hi there! My name is Kim, I’ve been tattooing for 16 years and my pronouns are she/her.
My sun is firmly in Scorpio. My moon is in Sagittarius, though most of my adventures are in my head. I have a vibrant imagination that feeds my creativity and aids in project execution. I love projects! My rising sign is in Leo which can be seen in my curly hair and funky style. Despite this astrological positioning, I don’t enjoy being observed so please don’t look at me LOL JK.

I’m a bit reclusive and enjoy chillin’ in my casa with my husband, Chris, and our two mini wiener dogs, Gizmo and Rosie.
I love water, fashion, cars, gardening, spending time with my family and hunting for edible mushrooms in the woods.

I have a BFA and an MFA in drawing and painting. Look at me using my degree! If I happen to have any creative energy leftover after tattooing, I love painting with acrylic on canvas and crafting. I’m a huge consumer of fantasy, anime and British murder mystery and must have the tv on in the background at all times except when reading.

I’m a feminist and a humanist and passionate about friendly and positive work environments especially in the tattoo industry and I love running Pink Goblin with my super brilliant management team, the Front Desk Goblins. Together, we work very hard to ensure that all of the talented artists we work alongside are treated with respect, compassion and have everything they need.

Thank you so much for visiting, hope to see you soon!
