Ashley Pietila
Tattoo Apprentice
Ashley was born and raised in Columbus, Ohio. She has always been passionate about art and self expression. Ashley is a cross-disciplinary artist whose background is primarily in oil painting but she loves to include various different mediums in her work. She graduated with an honorary Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Ohio University in 2021. Since then she has shown her work in gallery shows and has been working towards a tattoo apprenticeship.
Ashley is a wife and cat mom to six cats and many strays. In her free time she enjoys reading, annoying her husband, getting outside, watching movies, and spending time with friends and family. She loves caring for animals and her clients. Your comfort is top priority when you’re with her. You can show her pictures of your pets and tell her about them anytime and she’ll love every minute of it. She loves meeting new people and hearing their stories and gaining new friends in the process. She is always incredibly grateful to every client.
Ashley has wanted to be a tattoo artist for over a decade and her dreams finally began to come to fruition when her apprenticeship began under Skyler Miller in February of 2023. She currently doesn’t have a specific tattoo style and is just enjoying the process of learning the medium until she settles on her favorite. Ashley’s painting style is usually realism mixed with abstract surrealism and she’d one day love to bring that into her tattoo designs. She will give her all to any project you trust her with!
