let us introduce ourselves
NICHOLE YANOTA
"I am the owner and lead artist at Lucid Arts and Maya Studio, specializing in custom tattooing and graphic design. I created our studios based on creative passion, ethics, vision and vibe. Very quickly I witnessed how these spaces became a vacuum that pulled in fresh, authentic, and truly desired experiences. This isn't just work. These are not your typical tattoo studios. Lucid Arts and Maya Studio are spaces with heart, designed to nurture and inspire us. My tattoo clients have stories and symbols that they want to express in the form of body art, and it is my joy to create with them in this safe, honoring, and intimate way. And with over 20 years of graphic design and brand development experience, I've helped many businesses hone in on their visual identity, mission, values and voice. I put my heart and soul into every piece I create and my clients feel like friends by the end of our project."

BELLA CHEWNING
"Hello! I have a background in multiple mediums: wood and metal sculpture, fiber art, and illustration. I am passionate about art, but I am also extremely passionate about creating a safe space for ALL people to be able to enjoy the art of tattooing. When I am not at the shop, I am enjoying the great outdoors, music, history, poetry, and all things culinary- all of which help me in my design process. I currently service clients at both Lucid Arts (Carefree) and ARTery Tattoo (Cottonwood)."

KRISTA RAIN REYES
"Howdy! I was born and raised in the mountains of northern Arizona, and I take any opportunity to wander the outdoors and bask in the sunshine to find inspiration for my art, which I have been creating my entire life through various mediums. I enjoy creating pieces with a focus on appreciation for the natural beauty found in organic forms. Some favorites include desert bugs, skulls, mushrooms and twinkling stars. I’m a mama, an adventurer, a huge fan of David Bowie, and a child at heart. I’m thrilled to be available to serve my clients at Lucid Arts (Carefree) and ARTery Tattoo (Cottonwood).
