Erin E. O’Brien is a Los Angeles based multidisciplinary artist and tattooer. Born and raised in Southern California, she studied fine arts at USC (2015) and began tattooing in 2019. Her work employs pristine and vaguely graphic realism to explore the tension between beauty and violence in femininity and the surreal quality of embodied, tactile experience in contemporary life. Permanence, or the lack of it, is a central theme across all disciplines.

Her work has been featured in Pitchfork and LA Guide, and she tattoos out of Jelly Los Angeles.
