About Leilani
Leilani is an intuitive artist specializing in custom freehand tattoo art & creative design.
Heavily influenced by artists & craftsman growing up, cultural art & heritage was always a part of her life.
Self taught, her tattooing journey started around 2005, dedicating many years from home studios and local tattoo shops.
Leilani opened Ola Loa Studio in 2019 a private tattoo Studio in Hilo, Hawai’i focusing on custom spiritual based art, a wahine friendly space that provides ho’okipa (hospitality) and high vibrational energy.
​
The studio now shares space with two resident artists and sometimes guests.
Leilani currently lives in Puna with her pets and is focusing on her studies and new projects.
Please check back for updates as she shares her mixed media blog, services and art available for purchase.
"Kaʻohu as a person is such a sweet soul, and as a tattoo artist is so patient and easy to talk with. She always takes the time to work out design and placement with me, never rushing the process. My tattoos have healed well - no raised lines or scarring. I never hesitate to name drop her and her studio when people stop me to compliment my tattoos."
