Kylie Lesko is a tattoo artist with 10 years of experience whose passion for art blossomed in high school, thanks to an amazing art teacher - Aleta Garcia - who helped her realize her potential. That early encouragement set everything in motion: Kylie pursued her passion through art school and a tattoo apprenticeship, refining her skills and developing the distinctive style that defines her work today.
Her work spans black and grey realism, neo-traditional, watercolor, and mandala styles, with a particular emphasis on horror themes and female portraits. She integrates realism with linework to produce pieces that feel both technically precise and deeply expressive. Every tattoo is its own conversation between her artistic instincts and the story a client brings to the chair.
Kylie prioritizes in-person consultations to fully understand client visions and guide decisions toward results that genuinely satisfy. Her creative process merges client concepts with her own artistic perspective - drawing inspiration from her mentor Matt Stines and her roots with Aleta Garcia.
Beyond the studio, Kylie enjoys time with her children and singing. She travels to Nashville regularly to work at an off-Broadway tattoo shop, a practice that keeps her connected to a wider creative community and constantly evolving as an artist.
