Xi
BOTANICAL & WATERCOLOR VANCOUVER TATTOO ARTIST
HI! My name is Xi (pronounced as "She") Chloe Hua. I am specialized in botanica, floral, watercolor, and nature-themed tattoos. Depending on the desired style, I can work with the fine line technique to create soft micro details, as well as the brushwork/watercolor technique to achieve a more stylish and strong contrast. Of course, I can create a piece with a style that falls anywhere in between.
Getting a tattoo with me is a mindful experience. The design is discussed and created on the skin during the session. I listen to your story and create a tattoo that reflects you in the present moment. Each tattoo is a unique mark that celebrates who you are.

MY STORY
Being born in central China granted me the privilege of originating from a culture that has held the arts in high esteem for more than five millennia. My mentors were masters of their respective fields, possessing exceptional eloquence in visual languages and a wealth of technical vocabulary. On day one of my art classes, my mentor took away my eraser and said that “every stage of the transformation of an art piece should be honored and preserved, rather than being neglected and erased.” I held this teaching dearly to my heart as I moved deeper into my art journey.
At the age of 19, I moved to Vancouver, Canada to pursue my passion for drawing in the form of animation while attending Emily Carr University. During my undergraduate studies, I established a passion for the human body and its significance in expressing one's identity and spirit. This led me to the beautiful world of body art soon after graduation.
As I delved deeper into creating art with and for the human body, I discovered an increasing connection to the spirits and minds associated with each body. This realization inspired me to embark on a spiritual journey through mindfulness practices, aiming to enhance the healing and transformative potential of my art.
With each piece I create, my focus shifted from solely pleasing the eye to capturing emotions, evoking memories, and encapsulating fleeting feelings in time. My intention became to craft artworks that resonate with the body, mind, and spirit, offering solace, love, and compassion.
Through my art, I strive to provide an anchor for individuals to find peace, compassion, and love within themselves. My hope is that each artwork serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness of all beings and inspires a deeper understanding of our shared humanity.
On a personal level, I have endured life's trials, which relentlessly molded me like raw clay in a fiery kiln, shaping me into the resilient and refined piece of porcelain that I am today. This enables me to hold your stories with the utmost care and sensitivity, akin to a bouquet of the most beautiful flowers in my vase.
