Gianna McClain @scootalootattoos
Traditional Tattooist
Gianna has been tattooing since 2017. While she describes her style as illustrative, she has a deep love and appreciation for many styles of tattooing and incorporates elements of those styles into her own work. She specializes in both cover ups, dog portraits, and fantasy work; but she can tackle any project big or small.
She loves the bonds and relationships formed over the course of tattooing her clients. She strives to provide not only a great tattoo to her client, but a wonderful experience as well.
In her free time, Gianna mainly competes in dog sports with her dogs, Cricket and Minnow. She also enjoys painting, video games, movies, and various nerd things like Magic: the Gathering.

MAYCEE OGGERO @filthymedulla
Traditional Tattooist
Maycee (Instagram: @filthymedulla) is a Peoria-based tattoo artist weaving tradition with a contemporary, spirited touch. Guided by the belief that tattooing is more than art—it is a sacred ritual—she honors the trust placed in her by each client, channeling creativity and connection into every piece she creates. Inspired by the timelessness of traditional tattooing, her work breathes new life into its roots with a playful, modern energy.
Maycee views tattooing as a profound way to mark the journey of existence, etching the stories of the past, the emotions of the present, and the dreams of the future onto skin. To her, each tattoo is not just a design, but a talisman—a piece of personal magic carried forward in time.
