About Camille

Camille’s voice and boundaries are clear: she’s intentional, intuitive, and highly curated in both process and artistry. She prioritizes connection, artistic alignment, and creative freedom over volume or transactional work.

Her signature style combines a balance of natural forms, an  illustrative range of line weights, limited color palettes, and intuitive placement to create pieces that are both personal and timeless. Whether it’s an Artemis sleeve, a sweeping spray of poppies, or a beetle nestled in a bloom, Camille’s work feels intentional and alive.

Originally based in the Bay Area, Camille became a sought-after artist during her time in Santa Cruz, where she developed a loyal following for her distinctive aesthetic while owning Chimera Tattoo Studio.  Her fine art has been featured in art shows and publications, and she's known not only for her artistic skill but for the presence and care she brings to each client interaction.

Beyond tattooing, Camille engages in socially conscious art and illustration, creating pieces that speak to issues like misogyny and empowerment. She believes that the body is not just a canvas, but a story—and she’s here to help you tell yours.

Camille studied Drawing, Painting and Sculpture at UC Santa Cruz and The Academy of Art in SF.Camille Krilanovich is a tattoo artist known for her flowing, naturalistic work that feels as though it grew there on your skin. With a background in fine art and a deep reverence for nature, Camille’s tattoos often feature botanical elements, animals, mythological figures, and female forms—rendered with the graceful detail of an Art Nouveau painting.
