Tattoo Artist and Good Times Enthusiast

Medusa, né Gina Carlson, is a Pacific Northwest-born life-long artist. While her art career spans many mediums and years, she loves tattooing the most. She became licensed in Oregon in Feb 2020 after apprenticing for a few years in both Washington and Oregon. She currently works out of Sideshow Alley Tattoo Odditorium in Portland. Her primary interests are colorful, illustrative tattoos about witchcraft, mythology, fantasy, nature, and the occult.


When she isn’t tattooing or burying herself in art projects, she spends her spare time enjoying her record collection, playing nintendo or Sega, an hanging out with her rescue corgi, Jonesy.

Some FAQ about Medusa

Tattoo Artist and Good Times Enthusiast

Why the name Medusa? ‘Medusa‘ was a nickname chosen by a friend when discussing performing arts stage names based on my love of snakes (I have two at home) and my bifurcated tongue. After a few years, almost all my friends  were referring to me as Medusa, and it stuck.


What got you into tattooing? I was always an artist. When I was little, I would draw designs all over my arms and legs in marker. Eventually my mom expressed she hoped I wouldn't end up in a tattoo shop with all the other misfits and that’s where I first got the idea. Thanks, Mom!


What inspires you? I draw inspiration from several sources. I love nature, animals, plants, and various organic matter. Dark oddities and the occult have heavy impressions on my creations. I believe in spirits, sorcery, and divination and want to portray the life unknown in my work. I also draw influence from my musical tastes, which can vary from rock n roll to classical, as well as disco and pop and many other genres. I believe everything is influential if you have an open mind.
