Bio

Danielle Figueroa formerly Danielle White is the co-owner of Primal Instinct Tattoo with husband Carlos Figueroa. She started her apprenticeship in 2006 in Northern California. She met Carlos at that same shop in 2007. Danielle worked at a few different shops briefly before moving to Arizona to work at Club Tattoo where she stayed for a couple years before moving to Alaska with Carlos in 2011 where they have been ever since.

Danielle learned the struggles of working in a male dominated industry (as many women have) but continues to work to break those barriers as times change. She has learned much from her experiences and takes pride in creating a clean, safe and comfortable environment for her clients and employees. She believes that the overall experience is important and strives to make it an enjoyable one.

Danielle works in various different styles of tattoos and appreciates the freedom her clients give her in creating their special permanent art.

She currently opens her books for about three months at a time. If you are interested in booking an appointment with her you can follow her on Instagram @danietatts and follow her booking instructions.

Danu
I finished the third painting in my “Divine Feminine” series. 
Danu, also known as Anu, or Dana, Honored throughout eastern Europe to Ireland. 

She is a mother goddess associated with fertility, abundance, magic and wisdom. often invoked in rituals for abundance, prosperity, and guidance in decision-making. The earth-mother goddess is often depicted as the maiden mother crone or triple moon goddess as well as symbols including wind, animals, trees, and water as she is referred to as the flowing one. 

There are many varying stories/legends about her if you ever wanted to read about her but I connected with her story and am excited to have finally finished the third in this series of six mother Goddesses. 

This original painting is Oil on Canvas 48”x60” 

Prints are available in 8x10 11x14 and 16x20 at our online store darknorthartco.com

Carlos and I are very excited to announce what we are hoping will be the culmination of years in the making, a dream we have had for years and something that we have been working towards.  Dark North Art Co (darknorthartco.com) will be the creative outlet for mine and Carlos’s passion projects, art we do for ourselves and taking that art and also creating a clothing line.  We have been so fortunate to hone our art skills in the tattoo industry for the last 17 years, and thanks to all of you who have supported us, we will be able to focus more on our own personal art.  We are screen printing all our own Hoodies and T-shirts in our own screen printing shop.  We went through a lengthy process to find the most comfortable, best fitting quality garments.  We are also making our own archival quality, giclée art reproductions in our own print shop on ultra smooth fine art paper, these prints are rated to last 280-300 years without fading.  Our online store is up and running, we will be making announcements as we continue to add new shirt and hoodie designs as well as new art.
 
  What we are most excited about is stepping out of the shop seasonally to do as many festivals and outdoor markets as we can, starting next weekend May 19-21 at the Anchorage Tattoo Arts festival, then followed by our very own first Annual "Shop and Stab" where we will have vendors and artisans at Primal Instinct Tattoo selling their goods on top of having a tattoo flash day, walk ins only small pre designed tattoos on the 27th and 28th of May.  We would love to see you there  if you can.  For those to far, all our art and clothing will be available as of today at darknorthartco.com.  We just got the site up and running, please let us know if you are having any issues with it.  Again thank you all for your continued love and support, we are so excited to explore this new chapter of our lives and share it with all of you. Follow our Facebook page Dark North Art Co | Facebook and IG page @darknorthartco  for information on upcoming events and new additions to the art and clothing collection. Please like and share if you can. Hope to see you this summer!!!
