About Marilyn | Instagram: @mlillustre | Neo-traditional | Illustrative Blackwork
Q: What tattoo styles do you specialize in?
A: I specialize in bold Neotraditional tattoos and Illustrative Blackwork. I am also passionately developing my skills in custom blacklettering to eventually merge typography with my illustrative style.
Q: Do you design custom tattoos?
A: Yes, I love creating custom tattoo designs! Transforming my clients' unique concepts into artwork that perfectly fits the body is incredibly rewarding. I also constantly release original custom flash tattoos that you can choose from.
Q: Do you have examples of cover-up tattoos in your portfolio?
A: While I don't exclusively specialize in tattoo cover-ups, I am always open to working with existing tattoos. Depending on the design, we can often find creative ways to improve or hide it. You can see some of my cover-up work on my Instagram.
Q: Can I find examples of your large-scale tattoos, like sleeves or back pieces?
A: I have extensive experience with medium pieces and half-sleeves, and I am fully ready to take on large-scale projects! If you are looking to get a full sleeve tattoo, leg sleeve, or a back piece, I would love to collaborate with you on a big project.
Q: What are your favorite tattoo themes to work on?
A: I love creating unique flash, from trendy pop culture to random everyday objects. I also have a strong passion for dark floral tattoos, botanical elements, and black lettering artwork.
Q: I am unsure about the placement or size. What should I do?
A: Don't worry at all! The best approach is to connect with your artist. We can schedule a free tattoo consultation at our Montreal tattoo shop. We can sketch out ideas, discuss placement options, and help you visualize exactly how the tattoo will flow on your body.
Q: What is your tattoo pricing?
A: Tattoo pricing depends on the size, placement, and detail of the design. Once you share your ideas, I can provide an estimated price quote. The final cost will be confirmed once the custom design is finalized.
Q: Do you require a deposit to book an appointment?
A: Yes, a non-refundable tattoo deposit is required to secure your appointment date. This deposit will be fully deducted from the final price of your tattoo on the day of your session.
Q: Where can I see your recent work and reviews?
A: You can view my complete portfolio, available flash designs, and client testimonials on my Instagram (@mlillustre). You can also find verified shop reviews on our Google Maps page: Marques du Temps Tattoo.
Q: How can I book a tattoo appointment with you?
A: The best way to book is by filling out the Custom Tattoo Request Form directly on this website, and it will be forwarded straight to me. Alternatively, you can reach out via Instagram DM or email.
