Cheryl Abling

I am an impressionistic artist and tattoo artist, inspired by travels across the East Coast of the US, Asia, and Europe. My creative journey moves fluidly between canvas and skin, where flowers, symbols, and light are transformed into lasting impressions.

Flowers appear often in my work as emblems of resilience, mysticism, and beauty, while echoes of music, performance, and celebration breathe life into my brushstrokes. Each painting and tattoo is a dialogue between memory and imagination—capturing fleeting moments that bloom into timeless art.

Artistic Vision
Art is my way of traveling both outward and inward. From the East Coast’s shifting light to Asia’s blossoms and Europe’s enduring streets, I gather impressions that evolve into luminous brushstrokes and fine-line tattoos. My vision is to create work that resonates beyond the surface—art that becomes part of one’s journey.
