Alyssa Young is a multi-media visual artist and tattoo apprentice residing in Cleveland, Ohio.
Growing up in Pittsburgh, PA Alyssa’s artistic ability was supported from the start.
Her parents noticed the inclusion of unique details in her childhood drawings, such as the shine on an apple, and provided her private art lessons. Seneca Valley High School welcomed her in as many art classes as she could take and still displays her artwork in murals around the building.
Beginning her employment as a dishwasher at age 15, Alyssa has gained experience in a wide variety of other non-artistic occupations along her journey. Her unique set of experiences have made her into a quick learner, very hard worker, and even more passionate about her creative gift.
In 2012 she graduated with both a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Art from Carlow University & an Associate’s degree in Business Management from Butler County Community College.
In 2017 Alyssa opened her own business creating and selling professional and commissioned artwork. Some of her artwork is available for purchase here.
Now located in the Cleveland, OH area, she is currently employed as a tattoo apprentice at Stranci Tattoo & Piercing Co. Email to make a tattoo appointment with Alyssa or call the shop at 216-772-2235.
