Emily Collins

I'm Emily, the artist behind Rock & Rose Motel. I started this brand to make things I love: bold designs, vintage-inspired merch, and art with heart.

I've always been drawn to the world of American traditional tattooing. It is bold, it's confident, it's storytelling. So gaining an apprenticeship and picking up a machine felt like a natural next step.

These days I split my time between running Rock & Rose Motel and tattooing at Blind Tiger Tattoo.

Everything I make, whether it's a flash sheet, a T-shirt, or a one-off piece, carries that same thread: a little bit western, a little bit romantic, and always made with soul.
