Hey! My name is Ryleigh Kay, I’m a junior artist from Prince Albert. I started tattooing in August 2021 under the guidance of @janierose. I’m super excited to be joining Painfully Pretty and to be working with such amazing and talented individuals!
I love working on black and grey realism, fine line florals, font, and any nerdy video game tattoo I can have the opportunity to work on! I started taking my first few steps in learning black and grey realism this year. It has been an amazing journey so far, and I’m excited to continue learning as I pursue realism!

Apprentice
Hey, I’m Casey Graves. towards the end of 2024 i began my journey as a tattoo apprentice at painfully pretty, and i'm so thrilled to grow my skill and artistry along side a crew of such strong, inspirational women. a couple things about me, i adore ZELDA, BUT MY ENJOYMENT OF YOUTUBE LETS PLAY VIDEOS HAS MADE ME VERY FAMILIAR WITH ALOT OF VIDEO GAME LORE, AND I FIND ALL OF IT SO FUN AND INSPIRING! MY TRUE LOVE IS THE SHOP SNAKE HARVEY, TIED FOR FIRST PLACE WITH A CRISP CHICKEN STRIP.
AS FOR TATTOOS, RIGHT NOW, I HAVE AN INTEREST IN EXPLORING MORE ILLUSTRATIVE STYLES, THOUGH ULTIMATELY IM NOT SURE WHERE IM GOING TO, OR WANT TO, END UP ARTISTICALLY. REGARDLESS, I SURE AM EXCITED TO GROW MY SKILLS AND DISCOVER MY ARTISTIC VIBE ALONG THE WAY!
