Cindy Ortega

All Things Silly, Feminine, Botanical, Antique and Demonic

Cindy Ortega is a lifelong artist from San Diego, CA. Having pursued an education in art as early as high school, Cindy has an established background as an analogue artist in a variety of mediums. She actively enjoys continuing to draw and paint as much as she loves tattooing.

Cindy received her BFA in Illustration here locally at CSULB, after which she followed her heart to a career in tattooing and completed a formal apprenticeship in Tacoma, WA. She is inspired by American Traditional and her love for graphic novel and comic book art. Whether in full color or in black and gray, she loves tattooing all things silly, feminine, botanical, antique, and demonic.
