A little about me…

Hi, my name is Lily!

Thank you for visiting my page. I’m a co-owner of Deadly Nightshade Atelier, a local, private tattoo studio. With 5 years of tattoo experience, I specialise in fine line, black and grey, water colour and illustrative tattooing.

I’ve always loved Pokemon and have recently become obsessed with Sanrio… Pompompurin specifically. I’d LOVE to tattoo more Sanrio and Pokemon themed pieces. When I’m not obsessing about cutesy creatures though I also LOVE to tattoo black and grey fine line pieces with a dark romantic element.

Outside of tattooing, I’m also the lead singer of a femme punk band called ViperSnatch.

Highlights of my music career include: Opening for Spiderbait at the Tivoli, opening for Frenzel Romb, opening for Regurgitator, having opportunities to play interstate, playing at Australia’s first Loud Women Festival and recording and releasing our first studio EP.

In my spare time I volunteer as an Executive Committee Member for CQ Healthy Families. Doing admin work and helping organise community fundraising events.

As a procurer of many hobbies and clearly, a hater of free time… I also collect perfumes, Pokemon cards and plushies, play all sorts of games (with a soft spot for farming sims, creature collectors, open world RPGs & some MOBAs), run a cozy instagram page where I open blind boxes and booster packs and have recently taken up running. I LOVE LOVE LOVE cafes and coffee. If you ever want a recommendation just ask!

I LOVE chatting about gaming, horror movies, anime and local cafes so please don’t hesitate to start up a conversation about these topics during your tattoo.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or inquiries! I can’t wait to hear all your awesome ideas <3
