The Thirteenth Petal

Not every flower is perfectly symmetrical. Some are ornate, layered, almost overwhelming in their detail. And then there's the one that doesn't quite complete the pattern. The one that falls.

That's always been me. The odd one out. The one that didn't quite fit the arrangement. And somewhere along the way I stopped trying to.

I'm Samantha. Tattoo artist, illustrator, and the person who spent years putting dark, beautiful, floral art onto other people's skin before I thought to put it on anything else. The Thirteenth Petal is what happens when that art leaves the studio. It's the contrast I've always been drawn to. Black and grey with that one red petal. Softness sitting right next to darkness. Nothing perfectly balanced and that being exactly the point.

There's something about a flower that's almost perfect. Almost symmetrical. One petal short of the arrangement. That's where I live creatively. That's what this brand is.

Every piece carries original hand-drawn artwork. Made to order, made with intention. For people who feel things deeply, dress like they mean it, and have never really fit the pattern either.

This is just the beginning. More florals, more contrast, more of the things I make when I stop trying to make something normal.

Welcome to the thirteenth petal.
