The craft

Meet Jessie · Ink of Dawn

Jessie — Ink of Dawn — creates detailed illustrative blackwork and black & grey realism at Yes Electric in Toronto. Armoured figures, dark fantasy, narrative pieces and clean quarter-to-full sleeves are home turf.

Jessie loves building bigger projects with clients who trust the process — a recent quarter sleeve came together in just 1.5 sessions. Always down to discuss your next armoured skeleton or dark-fantasy concept.

Send Jessie a DM with your idea — dark fantasy, armour, a character or a full narrative project.

2

Design & plan

A custom illustrative design, with bigger pieces mapped across sessions so detail holds up over time.

Build the project

Clean linework and rich black & grey, layered session by session for ambitious sleeves.

4

Heal & continue

Aftercare and an open door to keep expanding the project — Ink of Dawn is built for long-term collectors.

“My husband and I went to Yes Electric on a whim — we were only in Toronto for the day. So glad we did: the artists were absolutely amazing and accommodating with the designs we brought in, especially as walk-ins. Both our tattoos are exactly what we wanted!”

Jessie FAQ

What tattoo styles can I book with Jessie?

Jessie focuses on blackwork, illustrative tattoos, floral work, fantasy pieces, fine line, ornamental details, custom drawings and creature-inspired designs. Bring references for subject, mood and placement so the final design can feel intentional instead of copied.

Can I walk in for a tattoo with Jessie?

Walk-ins are welcome at Yes Electric when the schedule allows, especially for smaller flash or simple custom ideas. Larger illustrative, floral or fantasy pieces are better booked ahead so there is time for drawing and placement.

Where does Jessie tattoo in Toronto?

Jessie works from Yes Electric Tattoo at 499 Queen St W in downtown Toronto. The studio is on Queen West, close to Trinity Bellwoods, Kensington Market, King West and the Entertainment District.

How should I prepare for an illustrative tattoo appointment?

Bring references that show subject, style and mood, plus notes on size and placement. Arrive rested, hydrated and fed, and wear clothing that makes the placement easy to reach during stencil checks and tattooing.
