(Or, request a custom design)
In addition to her love for tattooing, Maddy has worked as a ceramicist, graphic designer, design consultant, and mural painter. A Pittsburgh native, she moved to Portland, ME (2019) to continue her art education and to become a licensed Tattoo Artist (2021). Then opened her own tattoo studio in Biddeford, ME (2023). Always following her heart, she returned home to Pittsburgh and joined KSD Tattoo in Pittsbugh's Greenfield neighborhood (2025). Her work is styled American Traditional, meshed with human anatomy, silly things, puns, oddities, spooky themes, cherished nick-nacks, and cartoons. Outside the studio, you can find her tattooing at area events like Festival of Combustion, PAAR's Ink for Impact, Tatts for Cats, Bad Bitch Bazaar, Queer Craft Market, Wheeling Pride, and others. Whether you’re looking for sentimental, serious, or silly, Maddy will work with you to ensure you receive a design that you can cherish for a lifetime.
FAQ
Click below to guide you through these steps:
- Remove plastic wrap 2 hours after being tattooed (a little longer than 2 hrs is OK, less is not)
- Do not rewrap your tattoo during the healing process
- After the wrap is removed, wash with antibacterial unscented soap (Dial, Softsoap)
- Wash your tattoo last in the shower to rid it of other shower products
- After washing, apply a pea-sized amount of Aquaphor or tattoo aftercare with clean hands (Crybaby, Hustle Butter, cocoa butter)
- Repeat cleansing 2X/day for 4-5 days until your tattoo starts to flake off and heal
- After your tattoo starts to “peel,” wash it with an unscented antibacterial soap 1X/day & switch from Aquaphor to an unscented lotion of your choice (Aveno, Cetaphil, Lubriderm)
- Do not scratch, pick, or peel your tattoo when it is flaking off
- Pigment in the flakes of your tattoo is normal! It is not your tattoo falling out!
- Stay out of the sun, gym, and tanning bed for at least 2 weeks after being tattooed
- Do not swim or soak in any body of water (pools, oceans, lakes, hot tubs, bathtubs) for at least 2 weeks after being tattooed
- When the tattoo is fully healed, apply sunscreen before sun exposure and use moisturizer regularly (this ensures longevity of pigment and keeps your tattoo looking fresh)
- If you have any questions or concerns about the healing process or if your aftercare method is safe for your tattoo, please do not ask friends or Google. Reach out to me directly!
