Aliya Lara, Artist

I’m a Chicana, a big sister, a daughter, and an old soul with a deep love for plants, music, and stormy weather. Art has always been at the core of who I am, shaping the way I see and move through the world. I’ve had a creative mind for as long as I can remember, always drawn to beauty, emotion, and storytelling through visuals.

My whole life, I’ve wanted to be an artist, and tattooing has given me the space to turn that dream into a living. With every design I create, I grow into the tattoo artist I’ve always aspired to be. Tattooing allows me to bring art to life on skin in a way that feels both personal and timeless. At my core, I’m someone who creates from the heart, hoping to leave a little piece of joy with everyone I tattoo.
