Hey guys! Mercedez here, aka Cedibaby. I am an artist here at Autotroph Ink as well as it’s proud owner! I have a little over ten years experience tattooing, although many of those years I was also working full-time in the medical field. I am a surgical technologist so sanitation is one of my highest priorities. I’ve dabbled in different art forms my entire life; I am self-taught, and much of my experience has been focused on darker skin tones. Although I specialize in coverups and/or reworking old tattoos, I appreciate all styles and enjoy a challenge. Feel free to reach out so we can discuss working on something for you more specifically!

Hola! My name is Adriana. Ive been a tattoo artist for 2 years. My journey began apprenticing under an American Traditional artist, where I built a strong foundation in technique and discipline. As my skills developed, I joined the talented team at Autotroph in 2023 to continue my apprenticeship, pushing myself and expanding my knowledge.

After spending a year running my own private studio in Federal Way, I’m excited to be back at my home shop, surrounded by the community and creativity that inspire me most. Tattooing is more than just a career for me—it’s a lifelong pursuit of growth, art, and connection with the people who trust me to bring their ideas to life.
