Studios
Hello, everyone! In mid-November, one of my oldest dreams came true—my private fine art tattoo studio transformed into a platform for talented local artists as I hosted the San Francisco Open Studios here in Dogpatch, SF.
My friends and I showcased original artwork, prints, and custom jewelry, with additional treats like flowers for sale by Maia and tarot readings from Liz. The experience was truly amazing! Follow the links below to get to know the participants better.
My connection with SF Open Studios goes back to a time before I even had my own private studio. Mellisa played a key role, introducing me to Open Studios and hosting me, along with other artists, at her cozy home in South SF. This year, Mellisa showcased her beautiful immersive botanical landscapes and prints in my studio—my very own fine art studio!
The event was also enriched by Liz's custom jewelry and Maia's locally sourced organic floral bouquets. From my side, there were plenty: original paintings, prints, pins, and plenty of adorable postcards!
I'm thrilled to have witnessed such a great turnout! Dogpatch, as always, was filled with interesting art-oriented guests. As it usually happens during Open Studios, people traveled from across the city to visit all the artists of that weekend. Our works have now found new homes and owners, marking a promising start—or what I would consider the next step in my artistic career. I'm looking forward to launching my next Open Studios. Check out the SF Open Studios 2023 event photos.
If you're interested in collaborating with me, feel free to contact me directly! Who knows, perhaps you'll be featured in the next list of participants.
With fatigue but joy, I was off to rest for a couple of hours and then dived back into work! Tattoos don't wait. Stay tuned.

Meet the participants
Natasha Tsozik
The host
Tattoo and fine artist. Specializes in fine-line botanical, portrait, and animal tattoos in a black and grey illustrative style. Natasha creates pop surrealism art in mixed media. She'll share her original paintings, prints, stickers, t-shirts, and accessories like patches and pins.
Elizabeth Mathiasen
Jewelry designer
And also scientist, and tarot reader of San Francisco. Liz creates pretty magical things. Custom jewelry, made “with wire and anxiety”, may become your inspirational guide. Liz did tarot readings at Open Studios. I'm fascinated by her insightfulness. Liz has approached me with the idea of a tattoo once, and ever since she's been one of my most loyal clients and a friend. I had the luck to get to know her and her craft closer.
Melissa Mohammadi
Abstract artist
Living and working in the Bay Area. Immersive botanical landscapes on paper or pane will make you reimagine our natural world. Her work is in many private and public collections and has been exhibited nationally. Mellisa was the one to introduce me to Open Studios and hosted me as well as other artists at her cozy home in South SF.
Maia Yandell
Organic florist
Maia has sourced organic and sustainably grown flowers directly from farms in the Bay Area for going on a decade. I have been a regular customer of The Flower Press. They have a pop-up by Dogpatch Piccino coffee shop blue wall every Saturday. Maia provided us with organic flowers for sale at our Open Studios.
