Kelly was wonderful to work with, she listened to all my ideas and combined them into something amazing. I initially chose her based on her previous wildlife tattoo work, and she did not disappoint with the realism she brought to the piece. Beyond the initial consultation she also gave ideas and feedback about the design over text so we could get it just perfect, and then she tattooed it in awesome detail. She is super talented and caring, was very patient during everything, and I love the incredible artwork she etched on my skin! The tattoo that Kelly created and inked makes me SO happy every time I look at it!

There are not enough words in the English language to express how amazing Jake and Kelly are. Not only as people but artists. I always look forward to getting work done by Kelly. We have great conversations, and the music is almost as good as the view looking out into the forrest. I really appreciate how passionate Jake and Kelly are about art and their creative process is second to none. Much love.

It was a great experience as well as a fantastic journey ! I had an idea that Jake brought to reality. 43 years of the dogs I've loved and lost are now on my arm. I am so lucky to have them all with me again ! Each session was a great time for Jake and i to talk and for me to meet and bond with his family, which I have adopted as mine. Truly beautiful people. Then there is the Queen of Communication, Mariah. She has an awesome energy and makes the place complete! She helped make each session memorable and always made me feel special  ! I highly recommend EXEX tattoo. You will be impressed  !

Couldn’t recommend EXEX higher!! I got my sleeve done by Jake and it turned out much better than I ever could have imagined. As background, I searched for the right artist, across the upper Midwest, for around 3 years, then I found Jake. After seeing his work, and going through his initial intake process, I knew that I had found the right artist. He took the time on the front end to understand the meaning in the piece, and because of that, was able to come up with a killer design that blew me away. Once we got into the sessions, I was fortunate enough to get to know Kelly and Jake more. They are phenomenal people, and even more talented artists. I’m not sure what part of the process I enjoyed most, the initial intake and questionnaire in which my vision came to life in the design, the sessions themselves, or the final product. All parts were expertly crafted and executed. IMO - the overall process and outcome rivals anyone out there. You will NOT go wrong by working with EXEX. I’ll be back for more in the future! I attached a pic showing just one piece on my sleeve. Now that it’s done, I’m getting compliments almost every time I wear a short sleeve shirt!
