brynn Allyn  

Heya! I’m Brynn. You may have been tattooed by me when I was Miss Brynn, or Brynn Sladky. As I’m married and my new last name is even more Eastern European, I’m starting to use my middle name, Allyn, for all my tattoo stuff. Way easier!

I’ve been tattooing here in the Northwest since January of 2006! I’m so grateful for the PNW tattoo community, to the friends I’ve made and the folks I’ve had the pleasure to work alongside. I’m so indebted to every client who trusts me to bring their tattoo ideas to life after all these years!

I’m very excited that at this point in my career I am now operating a private studio by appointment only. Located in NW Portland on 17th and Lovejoy St, I strive to create a comfortable, quiet, and safe space to relax during your tattoo session. I know how stressful tattoos can be on their own, let alone a busy shop with people coming in and out, people hovering over you while you’re just trying to get tattooed. Working in a private space allows me to simply focus on you, your comfort, and making your tattoo the best it can possibly be.

I was voted 2nd place for Willamette Week's Readers Choice "Best of Portland 2016" for 'Best Tattoo Artist'! I have also been told that I’m the ‘Nicest Tattooer’ in Portland :D

Some of my favorite things to tattoo are definitely pop culture related. Anything from movies, to anime/manga, to toys or video games, I just love the creativity of these subjects and how loved they are by their fans. I always love tattooing lady heads, cute kewpies, botanical flowers…pretty much I like to do anything pretty, cute, and colorful! I love positivity and kindness, and I’m not drawn to sad/depressing/violent artwork.

I enjoy all sorts of video games, movies, random trips to the Oregon Coast or Disneyland (or heck even Japan if I’m lucky!). I love spending time with my wonderful husband Brandon, and our frenchie son Brisket (who is the apple of my eye). I’m hoping to get into gardening and learning Japanese for real if I can even stop tattooing so much lol
