Residents — 2026

Four artists.
Four very different needles.

Club Wtty is built around a small, permanent roster. No guests, no chair rotation — each artist runs their own book, their own style, and their own appointments. Scroll for bios and recent work.

Rhea Okafor

Fine line · Botanical · Hand-poke

Rhea trained under Lila Mensah in Lagos before landing in the US in 2021. Her work is delicate but structural — florals with architectural bones, wandering linework that always lands somewhere intentional.

Currently booking small-to-medium pieces on forearm, ribs, and spine. Hand-poke sessions by request only.

Mateo Aldana

Blackwork · Ornamental · Dotwork

Heavy blacks and slow dotwork. Mateo's pieces read like etchings — high contrast, graphic, built to age well. Comes from a printmaking background and it shows in every panel.

Best suited to half-sleeves, backpieces, and chest panels. Not taking small single pieces at this time.

Juno Park

Illustrative · Colorwork · Storybook

Juno paints on skin. Warm palettes, narrative compositions, a soft edge on every line. If you're bringing a story, a poem, or a grandmother's recipe card — this is the chair.

Works best with collaborative briefs. Expect two consultations and a custom flash sheet before the needle touches skin.

Saoirse Quinn

American traditional · Neo-trad · Flash

Tight lines, saturated color, no compromises. Saoirse keeps a rotating flash book you can walk — well, book — into. Reliable, readable work that still punches thirty years from now.

First Saturday of each month is flash-day: pick off the sheet, first-come first-served among confirmed appointments.
