Kelsey // OWNER - LEAD TATTOO ARTIST

Thank you for visiting our page! I appreciate everyone’s support in our dream jobs! I am Kelsey, and I started this store in 2013 and so proud of everything we have grown into!

I have been tattooing since I was 17 here in Springfield, MO. As much as I adore tattooing, I truly enjoy training and teaching this amazing team I have! There is no “I” in “team” is my motto.

I specialize in color realism tattooing. After years of doing a little bit of every kind of tattooing, I started only studying color about 3 years ago and never looked back! I do have an extremely long wait to get on my books, and the best way to get an appointment with me is to follow my instagram to see when I’m opening my books again. I do large scale realism, being sleeves, legs, backs, etc.

Some fun facts about me, My favorite color is Yellow (which you can see speckled throughout my store), I have 2 adorable kiddos, I enjoy rock climbing, knitting, and rollarskating when I can. And my favorite TV shows are Monk and Seinfeld. I love being an artist, an entrepreneur, a Mom, and a teacher.

I hope you enjoy Ink Ink as much as I loved putting it together.


 

Claire // Tattoo Artist & Piercer

Claire has been tattooing with us for over 8 years. Claire is our geometric guru and loves doing pieces with symmetry and dots, as well as, all things black and grey. She loves doing small tattoos as much as large ones. On her days off she’s cuddling with her puppies and watching movies. She enjoys puzzles, painting, knitting and crocheting.
