an independent author and tattoo artist located in Vancouver, B.C.

My written works cover a broad range of genres from dark fantasy and horror, to prose and surrealist comedy. An easy starting point for someone interested in getting into my writing would be my debut novel, ‘The Train to Sleepy Hollow’. A self-illustrated anthology of children's horror stories that are loosely connected in an overarching dream-like tale of trauma and hope.

Hi I'm J.J. Liebenberg,

Currently apprenticing under black and white realism tattoo artist, Cade Cran, at Hidden Realm Studios. My tattooing style is a mixture of illustrative black and white and anime aesthetics, with some of my biggest inspirations coming from old-school horror manga and German expressionism.

I'm open and excited to work in any style and love the process of collaborating on new and exciting artistic ventures in mediums I have yet to explore. If you have any questions or would like to reach out to me personally, please contact me via the link below or fill in a tattoo booking form here to set up an appointment.
