Meet Nina

Permanent Cosmetic Tattoo Artist

Here is a little bit about Nina...

Nina was born in the eastern European country of Georgia and began painting when she was 12 years old and has never stopped. Nina graduated from the Academy of Art in 2006 with a master's degree in visual artistry and fashion design. While in school, she became interested in makeup, and worked as a makeup artist and sought out additional classes to hone her craft.

She moved to the United States in 2008, and in 2015 she started working at US Arts Center as an art teacher where she continues to teach. Nina is passionate about art, teaching art and everything that relates to it. Permanent Cosmetic Tattooing caught her attention so she immersed herself in classes at Lillique Permanent Makeup Academy and has been a licensed Permanent Cosmetic Tattoo artist since 2021.

Nina apprenticed with Lizzeth for 5 months and is now an artist at ID ARTSY. Her goal of putting her artistic skills and vision into permanent makeup has been realized, in becoming a great practitioner. Nina is a mom of 3 beautiful kids and loves to golf.

Nina is licensed in Virginia as a Permanent Cosmetic Tattooer. She maintains her annual certification in Blood Borne Pathogens (BBP) safe practices and has met all State, County, and local regulations.
