Mary Minahan is back! She's more broadly known as Miss Vampira and when this show first met Mary, she was a wee apprentice who moved from coast to coast, to pursue her passion to be a tattoo artist.
Her first 2 part, Diary Entries (Ep. 90 & 91), were the perfect illustration of where Mary was... Trying her heart out but with bad audio engineering (the fault of this podcast host... Sorry Mary!) and a starter tattoo studio, only so much could happen within.
Now... Mary is at her dream studio with Grit N Glory and Megan Massacre (kinda a big deal). We are touching base with this fresh start. This is super exciting and such a good episode if you're a new artist, struggling to know if you should "earn it" (because someone insinuated you hadn't) or just "go for it" (because you know what you want)?...
We're so happy that Mary went for her dreams and didn't bench her potential for someone else's comfort. God bless you Mary and as always, we thank each Listener of this podcast.
You can also find Miss Vampira working in upstate NY, at Woodstock Tattoo Studio. If you'd like a bit more of a slower pace and less city vibes, Mary's got you covered here too.
Super exciting!!!!!!! Life is so amazing! Thank you Mary. You're an inspiration my friend. Big hugs!!!!!
