LA Residency 2025

Charlotte Pokes: Handpoke Tattoo Residency in Los Angeles – September 2025

I'm thrilled to announce that I’ll be bringing my signature handpoke style to Los Angeles this September 2025 for a limited four-day residency at the acclaimed Mad Rabbit Tattoo Studio in Downtown LA.

Residency Dates:

Monday 9th – Thursday 12th September 2025
📍 Mad Rabbit Studios, Downtown Los Angeles

This is a short, exclusive trip — and my only US dates for the year — so if you're based in California (or just visiting), now’s the time to book.

What I Offer: Soft, Symbolic Handpoke Tattoos

I work under the name Charlotte Pokes, a handpoke tattoo artist known for my illustrative, delicate, and meaning-driven work. My tattoos are created without a machine — just needle and ink — allowing for a more intentional and calming experience.

Clients often come to me for:

  • Personalised symbolic tattoos

  • Gentle first-time tattoo experiences

  • Minimal, emotionally resonant pieces

  • A quiet, focused, and private studio setting

Why Book With Me in LA?

  • A rare chance to book in-person in the US

  • Fully customised tattoos based on your story, energy, and style

  • A thoughtful alternative to machine tattooing

  • Sessions are limited and by appointment only

  • You’ll be tattooed in a serene private space at Mad Rabbit Studios, one of LA’s most exciting creative studios

More Than Ink — It's a Ritual

Each piece I tattoo carries intention, softness, and story. It’s not about trends — it’s about truth. My clients often describe our sessions as meditative, emotional, and quietly transformative. I’d love to hold that space for you too.

Whether you’re seeking a meaningful souvenir from your time in LA, a mark of a new chapter, or simply something beautiful to carry with you — I’d love to hear from you.
