I’m Violette, a tattoo artist, mother of three, and lifelong creator.

My work is rooted in nature, memory, and symbolism. I create pieces meant to live with you—designed to flow with the body and evolve over time.

Some clients come to me with a clear idea. Others come with something unfinished— an old tattoo, a feeling, or a story that hasn’t fully taken shape yet. All have a place here.

Much of my work involves reworking and building over what’s already there. These projects are often some of the most meaningful… Transforming something worn or disconnected into something beautiful and integrated.

Young Timber is more than a studio. It’s a space built around connection and craftsmanship— where you can come as you are and feel at home.

My husband and our daughters are often nearby as I work. Young Timber is something we’re building as a family. My husband is working behind the scenes to keep things running smoothly, and our girls are being raised within it, each finding their own creative paths.

This isn’t just a business— it’s how we’ve chosen to live. A slower pace, built around our time, our work, and investing in what matters to us— especially in giving our girls the space to grow into who they’re becoming.

When you come into Young Timber, you become a part of that with us.
