About Denise de la Cerda

Tattooing Professionally Since 1994

STUDIO IS LICENSED BY CHAUTAUQUA COUNTY AND IS NOW OPEN BY APPOINTMENT!

I’ve returned to Chautauqua County, specifically to Jamestown, NY, after having left home to seek my fortunes way back in 1980. I was raised in Lakewood, and graduated from SWCS.  I came back here after having lived and tattooed in NYC, NJ, and São Paulo, Brazil.  New York and New Jersey get too many hurricanes these days, and furthermore, I’d like to be close to family, and so, here I am. It’s great to see how much has changed here - Jamestown is now a cultural hot spot in Western New York State, and I’m excited to become a part of it! I’ve been tattooing professionally since 1994.

Scroll down a bit and check out the “Painting” section- there you will see commissioned works that I’ve done for individuals, as well as the paintings for the two album covers that I’ve done for the rock band KANSAS! Doing artwork for Kansas was truly a high point of my artistic career. To date I’ve done two of their album covers, their 50th Anniversary Poster, and a stage backdrop with which they are currently touring.
