Hi all and welcome!

As a petite model, with tattoos, I find myself ever changing and ever learning in this business.

My tattoos are many, but they are small enough to cover or photoshop out, if required.
-a small heart on my left wrist
-5 small butterflies on my right upper back/shoulder
-a care bear on my right ankle
-a humming bird on my lower back
-flowers on my left upper back
-sheet music and butterflies on my right arm (the largest tattoo I have)

To view the tattoos, you may visit http://s132.beta.photobucket.com/user/M … 13/Tattoos
*Note; the 'dragon tattoo' was airbrushed on for a shoot. That is not a real tattoo.

Please refer to my website for a more in-depth biography, portfolio list, day rates and an extensive gallery of images, including publication tears.

Feel free to message me for images of my tattoos, for those who are most interested in tattoo art/nude/implied work or those who need in-depth information on my body art/imperfections before considering me for any other genre of modeling.

Current Image

Unedited/no-makeup for anyone inquiring of my current image (03/02/13)

Experitse
Though my strong suit is beauty, bodypaint and creative/costume, I have done fashion, lingerie/glamour, implied/art nudeand other various genres or mixed arts modeling. I do like to stretch myself and the limits often, even doing some local runway shows.
