This week on the pod we have tattoo artist, Dre Li, joining me in the studio!
A very inspiring guest, Dre is a prominent tattoo artist based here in Dallas, Tx where she and her wife own and operate their own tattoo shop called “Electric Feels Studio."
Get the backstory on where Dre grew up and her journey to becoming the tattoo artist she is today. We dive into her tattooing process, how she built her brand, opening up her own women-ran business, and more. I was particularly interested in learning how she combats negative thoughts relating to her confidence in pursuing art as a full time career.
Being a fellow queer, we also dive into topics like how she met her wife and how she realized she was gay after being called out by her high school boyfriend's mom over her Britney Spears obsession.
And to cap off our conversation, we realize our shared love for pickleball even though neither of us have actually played a single game of pickleball yet, and contemplate if aliens are competitive. Yes, aliens.
This was a really great convo. We cover so many topics - serious to funny. Especially for artist out there, this is a great convo to listen in on. It was a treat getting to learn about Dre's journey and how she has established herself as a highly sought-after artist in the tattoo industry. I can’t wait for y’all to listen.
Come along and join the ride!
