Hey! I’m Allexis but I also go by Lex or Lexi. I’m a 28 year old tattoo artist born and raised in Kentucky. Tattooing has been a dream of mine since I was a kid. My Dad is a very talented Artist, seeing his work growing up was my inspiration. I knew I was passionate about Art but found myself very drawn to Tattoos. I just love the expression and that Tattoos can hold so much meaning. I have battled my mental health my entire life and there were many times I felt I would never make it in this industry, due to my high anxiety and panic disorder. I found out how to work through that and although my path may be a little different than most, I am so proud of everything I have overcome.

One of the many ways the soul speaks is through art. That is what inspired my studio name. Throughout my career I have turned many words, feelings, stories and memories into art. The images become unspoken words that mean so much to the souls that have sat in my chair. I’m forever thankful to each and every one that walks around with my art each day. I love nature and that is what sparked the colors, vibe and decor of my studio. The red tail hawk is very special to me. Using the feather with a tattoo cartridge was such a perfect fit for my logo. A symbol of divine guidance.

I’m so blessed to have operated my first ever studio under the name, The Emerald Butterfly Studio, in Lexington,KY. In memory of my best friend Briana Coffman, whose birthstone is emerald and connects with me through butterflies. I’m forever grateful for all the support from clients, family and friends at that studio. Without you all, I wouldn’t have been able to grow to where I am now.

I specialize in blackwork tattooing. I have many plans to continue working and growing and to offer more color pieces in the future but for now my vision is set and blackwork is my passion. My favorite things to tattoo are anything floral, animal or nature related. I love to create art in all mediums in my free time and would love to offer more of my work to clients and the public.

Overall I want my clients to leave loving their tattoos and have a comfortable experience. I may be your Artist but I hope I’m a light to everyones life that sits in my chair. My studio is a safe space and ALL are welcome. I am by appointment only. NO WALK-INS please email lex.tatt7@gmail.com to schedule

Love and Light ✨🪶 All thanks to God!
