Welcome to Studio XI, 
Where Art Unfolds in the Moment

The cost can vary and honestly depends on the details, subject matter, and size. All tattoo inquiries are quoted before being a session is offered to be booked. Please fill in an inquiry form with your concept if you are interested in working with me.

The deposit required for each session booked is $300, which goes to cover the first hour of each session. Once a session is booked and a deposit paid, it will not be refundable.

A session includes the time needed for consultation, stencil drawing, as well as the tattoo running time. All the time needed to create the art is included as part of the session. The consultation and stenciling/drawing time can generally take somewhere between 20-40 minutes. This process is important because it ensures that the design will perfectly fit to each unique body and reflect the client's intention properly. The session will be paused for any snack or washroom breaks (you won't be charged). It is possible that extra sessions might be needed for projects that require a more elaborate consultation and design process or for people who have low pain tolerance and cannot endure a longer session (for large projects).

Yes, absolutely! I offer a free 30-minute video/voice call with people who would like to get to know my practice more and get my thoughts on how I would translate your stories/concept into tattoos. That being said, I post a lot about my practice on my IG @inkedbychloe and I also share some of my writing on my blog on this website. Additionally, I have a Spotify Channel where I share verbally about my art and everything that feeds into it.

Great question! Every tattoo artist has their own way of conditioning their services. For me, I am an artist first and foremost. Tattooing is one of the many mediums I work with. The value of my sessions is not only on the completion of the tattoo itself but the fact that I will be 100% present and connected with you in multiple dimensions throughout the entire time we are together. There is no mental doze-off and trying to kill time. The moment when I see you for the session, I am devoted to you as your witness by syncing with your aura, intentions, moods, desires, etc. This way, I will be able to properly extract energies and crystalize intentions, embedding them into the tattoo piece you will walk away with. As soon as our session starts, my senses throughout all planes of existence have to be extremely sharp for the most flawless delivery of the tattoo piece while holding the strongest space I can. This process is a mandatory process of any art work I make. Without this process, there is no art work. I hold this part of my creative process in a divine light where I do not tread lightly as an artist. Due to the limited endurance and sustainability of this human vessel I am in, I can only hold one or two sessions per week to ensure the pristine quality of every session and their manifested artwork. Therefore, I hold every single minute of a session with the highest level of respect and integrity. I am so grateful for your trust in me to create your artwork. When you work with me, it's not just the "me" that you see who is working with you; it is my twenty-eight years of technical training in drawing, painting, and mark making; it is my three plus decades of dying again and again, joined by all that came before, in my spiritual and artistic embodiment as human being; it is my entire life of evolution to be the one standing in front of your eyes right now. And THIS is who is serving you. This is the reason why I call my session an "experience". Because, for you, I am ALL IN. PS - If you want to get to know my energy more and see if you would like to work with me, I share a lot on my blog here on this website, my IG @inkedbychloe, and I also have a meditative podcast called Studio Xi's Healing Library here: https://open.spotify.com/show/3kEqLyhhrTAobyPy1o0zh7?si=6ea57a8fc3eb4bc4 (https://open.spotify.com/show/3kEqLyhhrTAobyPy1o0zh7?si=6ea57a8fc3eb4bc4)
