Welcome, let’s make something beautiful.
Hello!
I’m so glad you’re here.
Every tattoo tells a story. Sometimes they capture a memory or a moment that means the most to us, other times they are an act of rebellion, celebration, or simply a beautiful adornment to your body.
Thank you for choosing me to tell your story.
Michelle Pomerantz
My name is Michelle, and I am the artist behind Modern Goddess. I began my lifelong dream of tattooing in 2019.
I specialize in full color, illustrative tattoos inspired by my deep love of nature and the everyday magic that surrounds us.
My goal is to create a comfortable, grounding experience for my clients, and craft tattoos that are intentional and empowering.
I view tattooing as an art form that is very intimate and unique. It is both a means of self-expression, and modality of healing. Tattoos celebrate your story, allow you to reclaim your sense of self, and reconnect to your body.
Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your journey!
Ethics & Training
Continuing Education Training:
Trauma-Informed Tattooing by Tamara Santibañez
Scar coverup and Mastectomy tattooing by Lita Edwards
Color Realism Tattooing by Kelsey Rogers
Just as I am constantly learning to hone my craft and become a better artist, I am continuously striving to create a welcoming, comfortable environment for all clients.
This includes providing a massage table with a working weight of 750 pounds, pillows of all shapes and support, pasties and a robe for privacy.
I practice consent based tattooing. I will ask permission before touching any vulnerable areas of your body. I will never ask you to remove more clothing than necessary, or take/post pictures of your tattoo without your permission.
I want all clients to feel fully empowered and in control during our sessions.
