Closed [Hot/Cold] state of the art II

[Joe Kerr]

warm
think younger. Also her 'canvas' isn't canvas (if that makes sense)

4 guesses left

 

[Nevon]

Can we have a hint, Mr. Kerr? We're over 5 guesses and all of them have been cold?

Ok...here's 2 hints:
1. Her first name has something to do with the title of a previous guessing game.
2. A previous AMA question asked by Nevon actually mentions this artist's chosen art form/medium.

Btw slight edit: i guess one could construe the previous guess as warm

Is it Kat Von D?

 

[Joe Kerr]

Is it Kat Von D?

YES!!!
It's Tattoo Artist Kat Von D.
Known for her amazing portrait tattoos, she stared in a couple seasons of "Miami Ink" and later "LA Ink".

Btw the Nevon AMA post i hinted at is this one:

Do you have any tattoos, and/or do you want any? If you could have one with a lot of meaning to you, what would you ink on your skin?

Well done Claire!

@Joe Kerr I went through Nevon's posts (#notacreeperjustawriter) and the only reference to art I could find in an AMA thread was the post you referenced. My gut told me Kat after thinking it might be a tattoo artist, and the other clue you gave about it being related to another guessing game made me think it was a solid guess. Thank you for that! This was very challenging and I don't think we would have gotten it without your extra hints. It is certainly not where my train of thought was heading before.
