Serina "Twiggy" Malec
A desert lizard at heart, I was born and raised in Arizona, I grew up riding ATVs and enjoying all outdoor activities. I have loved art of all kinds for as long as I can remember.
I began tattooing when I was eighteen while in a 2 and a half year apprenticeship.
After years of working for the wrong kind of people, being belittled as a woman in the industry, I wanted to raise the standards of hygiene and treatment of all people in tattoo studios. I decided to open Metamorphosis Tattoo Studio as a safe haven for tattooists and clients in 2016.
I have been a Colorado resident since 2013 and I have become one with mountain life. I spend every extra second I have enjoying the outdoors and nature, gardening, mushrooms hunting, and hiking.
I love going to comic conventions, watching anime and playing video games. Halloween and spooky season is my favorite and really just any excuse to dress up.
I strive to improve my art every day and become a more well-rounded human. Traveling is a way of life for me as well. I have traveled close to half the country and hope to one day make it all over the world.
