About the Artist

This is an image of Ash Armenta working with a client. It shows a close up of the workspace, Ash wearing an orange mask with a blue wireless tattoo machine in hand, a tray of tattoo materials, ambient pink light and potted plants.

Hi there friends, thanks for finding your way here. I'm Ash, and I'm a fine artist and tattoo artist. I primarily tattoo at Lost Lakes Tattoo in Madison, WI. I'm stoked to work with you to create custom designs that compliment your body. 

I aim to make each clients tattoo experience positive, affirming, and safe. All bodies and identities are welcome! As an independent self-employed artist I deeply appreciate your support! 

My professional studio art practice is based in traditional printmaking, woodcut, lithography, engraving, and I love bringing that skillset to my tattoo designs and technique. 

I have a MFA and MA from UW Madison as well as a Master Printer title from Tamarind Institute, University of New Mexico.  I also occasionally lecture Printmaking courses at UW Madison.

So, when I talk to clients about their projects, I’m bringing 5 years of tattooing experience and 15 years of collaborative art making to the table when we bring your project to life!
