Hi! I’m Carla Sofia :)

I’m a queer Dominican Tattoo Artist based in San Diego, California. I’ve been tattooing for over 2 years professionally and love working in black and grey with occasional pops of color.

My art is heavily influenced by surrealist artists like Remedios Varo, Leonora Carrington, Dorothea Tanning amongst others. Much of my inspiration is drawn from movies, music, literature and of course nature.

Collaboration is an essential part of tattooing for me. The space I carve out for it feels intimate and carefully crafted. The energy exchange we have in the 2+ hours we spend together is intentional and thoughtful. If this sounds like something that aligns with you, reach out to me via my booking form and let’s get an appointment going <3
