Made for you

Drawn for your skin, and nobody else’s.

Monarch Ink is a muralist-owned studio in downtown Owensboro. Every piece here starts the same way: a conversation, then a drawing you get to change until it’s right.

Nobody rushes you. The stencil gets moved until it sits where it should, and then the work starts.

The work

Straight from the chair.

Color realism, black and grey, cover-ups, and whatever you walk in with. Every one of these was tattooed here.

Who’s tattooing you

The hands.

What we do

Ink, brows and steel.

Custom realism, color, black and grey, portraits and cover-ups.

Microblading, eyeliner and lip blush, shaped to your features.

Ear, cartilage, nose and body, by a licensed piercer. $60 per hole.

Memorial work

Some ink is for remembering.

A name, a date, a portrait, flowers for someone who isn’t here. Bring the photo and the story. We’ll take our time with it.

The stencil gets drawn, moved and redrawn.

  2. Draw. We draw it for your skin, and you get to change it.
  3. Place. The stencil goes on and moves until it sits right.
  4. Tattoo. We take our time. Then you take home the aftercare.
