These last few years in Montreal, non-tattooed people have almost become a minority. Tattoo studios are plentiful and artists even more, so it’s positively impossible not to find the perfect person to create your dream design.
For your regular dose of tattoo inspiration via Instagram, here are 7 extremely talented female artists from Montreal to follow !
A seasoned tattooer, Hilary (@hilaryjanetattoos) is a nature lover and, judging by her Instagram page, an excellent photographer too. She has Art written all over her – literally ! – and makes a living by imprinting it onto people’s skin : Brilliant, right ?
Line art virtuoso and vegan practice enthusiast, Catherine (@katakankabin) navigates constantly between Montreal, New York, México City and San Francisco. In short, she’s in demand and we don’t really have to wonder why.
Val Day (@v_a_l__d_a_y)’s neo-traditional style is girly, a bit dark and of extraordinary precision. She’s an expert in drawing animals, but really, she can do everything !
Maïka (@tattoobymaika) specializes in geometric designs, mandalas and industrial type tattoos. Her original and colorful style is what makes her so popular.
Vicky (@vickyfiliault)’s art is quite unique and beautifully fanciful. If you’re not quite ready to have your skin inked forever, you can still display her awesome pieces on your walls !
Born in Japan, Ayako (@ayako666) started tattooing eight years ago. She’s a master of colors and her portfolio is so diverse that it is safe to say that she can do pretty much every style and really rock it.
Muriel (@murieldemai_tattoo)’s distinct universe comes from her surrealist and somewhat melancholic imagination. Her small, feminine tattoos made almost exclusively of black ink are incredibly alluring, and just as lovely as she is.
