ABOUT

Calistoga Headshot_edited.jpg

My name is Genevieve, the artist behind High Desert Handpoke. I began my tattoo journey in 2019 after receiving my first handpoke piece from another artist. I was immediately drawn to the quiet, intentional rhythm of machine-free tattooing—the slow, steady pokes that bring a design to life. Since then, I’ve been dedicated to this craft. My work favors soft lines, ornamental designs, and nature-inspired pieces that will age gracefully and feel personal for years to come.
