Marie Makowski of Black Cat Tattoo

Marie's connection to art began early. As a child, she was often drawing or creating artwork while tagging along with her mom to work, using art as an escape into a world of curiosity. That early habit grew into a deeper passion, leading her to study fine art and art history throughout college.

Her path eventually led her into tattooing, a craft that has allowed her to meet inspiring artists, clients, and characters from all over the world. Through those experiences, Marie has built a strong foundation rooted in hard work, integrity, and real respect for the craft. She takes pride in being part of a tradition shaped by dedication, experience, and the kind of artistic community that feels increasingly rare today.
