INTRODUCING
Alice Carrier’s ROSE COLLECTION
Portland’s premier botanical tattooer is now your local rose specialist! For years, Alice has refined a style of illustrative realism based around the imagery and folklore, and elemental allegory of the ROSE.
Author of the Tarot of Roses and avid rose gardener, she cultivates her subjects live. Born on the winter solstice, descended from Salem witches, Alice is a devotional practitioner of tarot with folk Catholic roots. Her upcoming book, How to ask Good Questions is a guide to the daily practice of asking and receiving, containing a compilation of questions to guide and inspire.
Tattooing in Portland and worldwide for over 12 years, Alice offers a concentrated, refined menu of rose offerings in black and sometimes red, to suit the specialty collector. Carefully selected for beauty, elegance, legibility and flow, Alice makes tactile use of botanical forms to mimic gesture and convey emotional depth.
Roses are a classical motif, an emblem of home, a signal to soften, a tamed beast. It has been said that a rose can mean anything, which makes it mean nothing. This contrast, reflected in the boldly defined, stay-true blackwork found here is a framework for creating a lasting piece that can endure a lifetime.
