Rachel Giavasis

Rachel Giavasis is a Bay Area tattoo artist whose work is rooted in reverence for the natural world, sacred patterns, and the unseen. She specializes in blackwork and ornamental designs that draw from folklore, mysticism, and botanical forms—creating tattoos that feel like personal talismans. Rachel approaches each piece as a collaboration, crafting artwork that flows with the body and honors the client’s story through intentional detail and intuitive design.

Outside of tattooing, Rachel is deeply connected to the landscape of Northern California, where she spends her free time hiking, camping, and exploring mindfulness. She finds inspiration in the plants and animals she photographs along the way, and in the stories she encounters through travel. With roots in the Greek islands, Rachel’s work is often informed by ancestral symbolism, nature-based spirituality, and a love for beauty in all its forms.
