Sigil Witch — Janine Houseman, Solo Tattoo Artist in Exton, PA

About Janine Houseman

Sigil Witch is one person: Janine Houseman. Not a studio collective, not a team, not a brand — every consultation, design, and tattoo session is done by her personally. Nearly twenty years of experience.

Her practice is distinguished by three things: intention-first design (each piece is built around the client's reason for getting it, not replicated from flash); a core specialization in ornamental and sigil work rather than general flash tattooing; and an application-only booking filter — clients apply through a written form, and Janine selects the projects she can do well.

She works out of Creatrix Collective in Exton, Chester County, Pennsylvania, and offers Skincantations: a one-on-one ritual tattoo session built around a personal sigil designed specifically for the client.
