BOOKS CLOSED-THANK YOU TO ALL WHO SUBMITTED
I‘m a female tattoo artist, and have been tattooing in Maryland for nearly twelve years. I also own Foxwood Tattoo Collective in Sykesville, Maryland. Tattooing is my deepest passion. I love creating unique and beautiful tattoos for all kinds of people. I mainly focus on black and grey, fine line, mandala, florals, and geometric work. It is incredibly important to me that you feel comfortable and safe throughout your entire tattoo process. From consultation, to drawing, to stencil, to the execution of the tattoo, being thorough and working with intent is always the forefront of my process. It is also the utmost importance that you feel safe and welcome in my chair. I welcome all BIPOC and LQBGT+ clients.
I have been an artist for as long as I can remember. I have been seriously drawing and painting since I was about 6 years old. I graduated with my Bachelor of Arts degree from McDaniel College in 2014. I have received many awards and honors in arts and tattooing. In addition to my formal education in art, I have a master mindfulness and meditation practitioner certificate, am a Reiki 1 and 2 practitioner, a certified sound bowl healer and have invested thousands into my own education in courses including entrepreneurship, business, and coaching. I LOVE learning and continuing to push my skills and knowledge. I pride myself in having incomparable client satisfaction with all 5 star ratings. If you're looking for someone who is kind, caring, and gentle for your tattoo process then look no further! From first tattoos, to the one-hundredth tattoo, I will be sure that you leave with a one of a kind tattoo experience. I believe tattooing can create a healing experience and a sacred space for past experiences, celebrations, trauma, and the roller coaster of emotions we have as humans. I always intend when I work to go into our journey together with positive energy, healing intentions, and gratitude for the creation of art. I attempt to create a space that is safe, relaxing, comfortable, and welcoming as a tattoo creates many sensations through our mind, body and spirit.
My values are integrity, gratitude, and balance. I am luckily and happily married to my husband Michael with a beautiful step daughter Serenity and live in Owings Mills, Maryland. My other babies include stunning poodle Bellatrix and my kitties Oliver and Zoey. I spend a lot of my free time reading, doing yoga, traveling, practicing Reiki and Sound Baths, and overall I believe in living a heart based life. I like to spend my time teaching and mentoring others in mindfulness, resilience, and authenticity. My goal is to always help people realize their natural and beautiful power within and help those heal from past experiences and trauma. While I have been through many trials and tribulations in this life, I have learned that there is an abundance of love and joy to celebrate right in front of us. Connection is what keeps our universal energy flowing and I am grateful to create loving and meaningful relationships through this career, and this life. I strive to continue to heal myself and others, to honor our life energy with love and gratitude, and to say yes to as many as life's opportunities as possible.
As a female American tattoo artist in the 21st century, I have been observing our culture and the world surrounding us, especially since the events of the more recent years. After opening a business and traveling, along with battling my own childhood, health, personal and family trauma, I have learned that many of are living in a state of permanent fear, anxiety, and a hyper fixation on DOING. We live in a constant spinning vortex of expectations, validation, and a spiraling down fall of our self-worth and overall love toward ourselves and each other. In a repetitve story of trying to control or fit in, or difficulty with boundaries and self-discovery, I learned there are patterns of fear anger, guilt, all kinds of gnarly feelings we have all have been crawling out of, desperate for help or for escape. We leave little time and space for BEING, and even if found the time and space, WE DON’T KNOW HOW.
I learned that the world became a better place when my inner world became a safe haven. To change the world doesn’t start with opening a homeless shelter or donating money or food, it starts with healing the person that has been here since the day you were born, and leaves with you the day you die. This person is you, and every thought, intention, spoken word and movement are who you are in your being. This becomes how every person and place remembers its interaction with you, etching a picture of the essence of you. Wouldn't you want that impression to come from a more authentic place, a place that is truly you at your best self?
I decided to do something crazy, as the type-A control freak super organized go 120% at all times type person that I am, and remove all control from my life a few years ago. I leaned into my authentic self, let go of what I could not control, and then came my courage. I did this in my personal life, my health, and the last step was my business. I typically need to know every detail of every little thing of your idea, concept, inspirations, budget, size, to tattoo, however, the more I leaned into the unknown, the more I discovered that art is meant to be created from a small voice on the inside, the nature surrounding us, a feeling, a sound, the parts of being human. Art, truly beautiful art, comes from within. It comes from what we NEED more so than what we think we want, what we are searching for, what we wish to embody. Art has survived century after century as is cultivated by the ones that not only listen, but actually hear the collective message that is screaming to come through. Are you ready to listen with me?
Expectations vs Reality of being a Tattoo Shop Owner
I just got my first tattoo done here by Casey and cannot say enough incredible things about her, this studio, and my experience here.
First I'd just like to say... this studio is professional, clean, neat & tidy, and super inviting. You can tell that all of the artists there really take pride in their work and making sure you have a pleasant and comfortable experience.
Secondly- CASEY IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! HANDS DOWN. I booked with her because I was intrigued by her work and her style fit exactly what I was looking for. Her line work, delicacy, and precision of detail is so beautiful. At my consultation I told her I wanted flowers on my foot and she drew up a rough sketch and seemed to totally get what I was wanting. I told her I wasn't that picky about what kinds of flowers she did; I was very familiar with her work as I spent a lot of time researching and looking at her portfolio so I learned which types of flowers she liked to do a lot of. I trusted her and knew that whatever she did was going to look bomb. On the day of my appointment she actually ended up free-handing most of the flowers, stems, and leaves on my foot which I am still blown away by. Not only is she an AMAZING artist, she is super sweet, friendly, funny, and made me feel SO comfortable and relaxed when I was nervous about the pain. She is also super informative about tattoos and did a great job explaining the aftercare process for me since I was not familiar.
Overall, my experience here was beyond what I could ask for and I would highly recommend this studio and especially Casey to anyone!! I have received so many compliments already, even my mom who was not thrilled about me getting a tattoo loves it! I totally want to come back here and book with Casey for my second tattoo.
Casey Hart has done 2 tattoos for me. She's welcoming, sweet and so professional! She free-handed most of my second tattoo and it's absolutely gorgeous!! A few of the other staff came over and chatted while I was being tattooed and everyone was super friendly. The price for the quality of work and time it took was more than fair. I recently moved out of state and actually travelled back to MD to have Casey do my 2nd tattoo, which completed my half sleeve, and I will definitely be visiting in the future to see her again. She's amazing!
Had the best possible experience with Casey! She is an incredibly gifted tattoo artist who can manage to create gorgeous pieces of body art with very delicate fine lines. Not only is she is extremely talented, but she is very friendly and her demeanor immediately put me at ease despite my nerves. She has the magic touch and made getting tattooed an incredible and painless experience. Any wait time to get booked with Casey is well worth it! Couldn't have asked for a better piece or experience!
Casey is absolutely amazing! She really listens and tries to give you what you're looking for while also providing an impeccable sense of artistry. Her line work and shading are both perfection and she has such a delicate touch that there's minimal pain. She's the best!
I've left this same review elsewhere, but I can't put it in enough places! Where do I even begin? Casey tattooed my quarter sleeve and the only way I can describe how beautiful a piece she did is that I left feeling more like myself than when I went in. She drew up what I couldn't imagine myself and I can't imagine going to anyone else for tattoos from here on out. Her talent is incredible and she was a pleasure chatting with while I was in the chair!
I just had a full day session with Casey Hart for complimenting thigh pieces and she was amazing! Her chair-side manner is relaxed and she is so sweet! Her talent is exceptional. She brought to life an idea that I’ve had for a long time to memorialize my family in a beautiful way. She understood exactly what I was hoping to achieve and she definitely delivered. My whole experience exceeded my expectations and I would love to come back! It’s worth the wait!
Casey did my tattoo and she is so crazy talented. She took my initial vision and created a beautiful design, better than I ever could've imagined! She was so kind throughout the whole process. Plus she was super patient when I was very indecisive about little details! She was professional and made me feel so comfortable. I'd recommend her in a heartbeat!
The greatest machines the market has to offer. But my Cheyenne is my daily baby. It’s soft and gentle on the skin, with a gentle hum so there’s little to no noise. My Valhalla is a monster that is great for all kinds of line weight and allows me to make great and crispy lines.
