Buoy’s journey as a tattoo artist began with something very simple—doodles. Since childhood, they loved filling sketchbooks with little drawings wherever they went. “I always bring my little sketchbook everywhere, and filling it up with random doodles was one of my favorite things to do,” Buoy shared. It wasn’t until later that they realized these sketches could become tattoo designs people would actually want.
When it comes to inspiration, Buoy keeps things lighthearted. Animals, internet culture, and funny moments all play a role in shaping their work. “Most of them come from the internet recently, like memes!” the artist explained. This playful approach ensures that each design feels fresh, relatable, and full of personality.
One of the biggest joys for Buoy is seeing the happiness their tattoos bring to others. Watching clients light up when they see their finished tattoo is what makes the process so rewarding. As Buoy described it, it’s more than ink on skin—it’s “a rewarding moment, knowing their artwork has brought joy to someone else’s life.”
