Ethos & safety
The atelier begins with a drawing.
Getting tattooed is an act of trust. Slatefield answers it with artwork made to age well, hospital-level barriers against cross-contamination and a quiet, unhurried Portland studio.
Hygiene & consent
Sterile setup, consent at every step.
Every artist holds county health licensing and annual Bloodborne Pathogens certification. Single-use cartridges and grips are opened in front of you, every surface is barrier-wrapped fresh, and privacy screens and quiet check-ins are there whenever placement calls for them. We tattoo ages 18 and over only, with valid photo ID.
Originality
Drawn for you, never copied.
Every custom commission is drawn from scratch for your body. You review it in person at the start of your session, and each flash design is retired after a single tattooing.
