About the Artist

My name is Ankwet wzho’cye ge kwe, but you can call me Cloud!

I am an indigenous, non-binary member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, figurative painter, illustrator and tattooer. I work in a variety of mediums, such as, oil paint, acrylic, and more recently tattooing! I graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Arts from CSU Channel Islands in 2016. In my tattoo work, I love to use bright, vibrant colors contrasting with bold black line work and shading. My fine art has been featured in several art shows and galleries in Ventura County, including the McNish Gallery. I love making art for people to enjoy both on their bodies or to hang on their walls. I am currently in my second year of tattooing at White Lotus Body Arts in Ventura, California.
