Multilingual Tattoo Artists in PDX

Being able to communicate with your tattoo artist in a comfortable and effective way is so important. Tattoo artist Katrina Zarate started this list of multilingual tattoo artists in and near Portland, OR to help empower clients.

The language(s) we speak influence how we talk about the world. There are also culturally influenced differences in language and meaning. These differences in vocabulary can be significant to understanding a tattoo design, concept and style.

This is not a complete list of multilingual tattoo artists in or around Portland, Oregon, only what has been gathered so far.

If you are a licensed Oregon tattoo artist from the Portland area who speaks a language other than English and want to be added to this public list, or if you are on this list and have corrections, or if you want to be removed- please fill out the form below.

Tattoo 34 is not associated with the tattoo artists on these language lists in any way. If they do not work in our tattoo shop we can not vouch for their tattoo work or professionalism. Please do your own due diligence when looking for a tattoo artist.
