About Erika

Erika Doyon began her career as a tattoo artist in 2005, completing her apprenticeship in Montreal, QC. She moved to Ottawa, On, in 2006 to pursue an opportunity to work with accomplished female artist Kathy Wallace, owner of Living Colour Tattoos. While proficient in a wide range of styles, her passion is realism, portraiture, and Japanese. Erika’s background in illustration and design has cultivated an excellent understanding of proportion and colour theory, while years of working with oils and scratchboards has developed an eye for fine detail. Erika derives inspiration from a number of tattoo artists including Bob Tyrell, Tim Hendricks, Vladi from Italy, and Shige from Yellowblaze in Japan. She currently lives with her two kitties, one lizard, and a plethora of arts and crafts tools!
