Raincloud Tattoo, private studio of Kari Yocom

This was a great experience, and now I have an absolutely beautiful and unique work of art on my body! I wanted a meaningful tribute to my college, which permanently closed a year after I graduated. Kari took my admittedly strange request and created a design that is so perfect and gorgeous. Very kind, a skilled artist, and nice, clean, workspace. Highly recommend Kari!! 😍❤️❤️

Kari is an amazing artist! I absolutely love my tattoo. I definitely recommend coming here!

Kari is a magical fairy with amazing ideas and a very broad range of styles and techniques. Her artwork is beautiful and by the end of long projects, you'll be completely satisfied. Working on a sleeve currently and a cover-up, and so pleased with the outcomes thus far. The private setting is comfortable and not awkward af like larger shops. Kari has water, tea, and snacks as well. She's super professional and kind. You will be 100% satisfied. Highly recommend.

My first tattoo and a great experience all the way around. Kari is a great artist and explains everything. She has a calmin, fun personality.

Kari is awesome. She worked with me to find my perfect tattoo!

Her shop is very inviting. Has a zen like quality which is great if you are going in for your first tattoo.

I would highly recommend Kari. I am working on my next tattoo!

I went to Kari for my back tattoo and I love it so much! She really listened to what I was trying to get out of this tattoo and her dedication to making each tattoo a work of art is very apparent. She's also a very sweet individual; I first messaged her about getting a tattoo after my dad had died and her response was very comforting and really reassured me that I was going to the right person.
She's a great artist, I will definitely will be getting more tattoos from her in the future.

Kari is a true professional and an amazing artist! She did a tattoo of mine last night, which was my first tattoo not having the exact artwork picked out, so I was a little nervous of what she would draw up. She was kind enough to have two prepared drawings; one that she made herself off of the quote and idea that I wanted and one that was closer to some artwork I had found on my own. Without a second of hesitation, I chose her original drawing! Kari also took the time to answer any questions I had, especially this also being my first colored tattoo. She cleaned and prepped in front of me, which I really appreciated. I am prone to fainting, so she also checked in with me along the way and set up her chair so that I would be less likely to faint.
I can't say enough good things about my experience with her! Kari, thank you for the most beautiful tattoo!

Much to my dismay, as I have gotten older my pain tolerance has changed and also my skin sensitivity, in general. I was so very happy with the time and genuine care that Kari took with explaining listening to my concerns and list of allergies. She made an appointment for us to just go over my design ideas and also come together with a game plan to tackle my sensitive skin. Not only is she a great listener she's a professional. She has true experience and a solid working knowledge of how best to tattoo the wide variety of skin textures. We're working on delicately thin skin and her lines don't blur or bleed. She communicates like a pro too, with respect and dignity. If you want to be treated like a real live person and not some chump that's paying a bill I couldn't recommend her more.

Yes she's wonderful, yes she's oh so nice, but what about her art Liberty?

I'll tell you this person has a keen eye for color. She put together colors I wouldn't have thought of in a way that just tickled my brain in such a happy place! Her tattoo come to life while you sit there.

What's more is that your are directly supporting an artist!! She is her shop! You are helping to fund a women owned and run business and dream... Who could ask for a better reason to get a tattoo.

I got my first tattoo done here and it was a super great experience! Very relaxing and fun atmosphere and great work too :)

Kari is a wonderful resource for a custom nature tattoo with color! She hand pressed a Western Red Cedar branch to my arm with ink and delicately tattooed the outline and then gave it incredibly vibrant colors reflecting all the seasons. She is incredibly talented with bright colors, which is rare and hard to find in Portland. I hope to go back for more work from Kari soon.
