About Studio Ink
Studio Ink has quietly become one of the most respected tattoo shops in Austin, and folks who get inked here tend to come back for everything from then on. Ask anyone who's been through the door and they'll point you to the artists first. Mark's name comes up again and again for his attention to detail and how easy he is to talk to during a session. Lito is the one people trust for sleeves and cover-ups, patient through design and happy to work in your input until the piece is exactly right.
Levi has a real knack for turning abstract ideas into finished designs, with shading people can't stop mentioning. Between the six artists, this East Austin studio covers realism and portrait work, illustrative and geometric pieces, dotwork, American traditional, and black and grey. Custom design is the heart of what they do here. One regular described walking in with a broken piece of their past and walking out with something they're proud of, black light ink and all.
Cover-ups are clearly a strength, and numbing options are on hand if you want them. The word around Austin is that this place feels more like family than a shop. People mention how clean it is and how welcoming the crew makes first-timers feel, walking them through the whole process. Studio Ink says they follow sterile, licensed practices, which lines up with what regulars report.
It's appointment only, and one person who drives nearly an hour each way summed it up: 1000 percent worth the trip. Good work at fair prices keeps people coming back.

“Mark and Courtney helped me design a cover up tattoo and replaced a piece of my broken past with something gorgeous and more reflective of the life I live now, and it has black light ink too so the moon and stars will glow!”
“I am currently in the process of getting a sleeve and a half sleeve done by Lito. From design all the way through the tattooing process they are very informative and listen to my input to give me exactly what I wanted.”
“Solid spot, very clean, good deals and great tattoos! This shop gives you a family vibe rather than just a tattoo shop, all solid people here.”
