Elisha Marie creates lettering tattoos in Chicago for people who want words to feel as intentional as any illustrated image.
A phrase, signature or handwritten note can carry enormous emotional weight. The work is in translating it onto the body with the right spacing, scale, placement and visual rhythm.

Handwriting Tattoos
Personal handwriting can become a tattoo without losing the irregularity that makes it meaningful. Elisha can work from letters, cards, signatures, notes and other handwritten references.
Memorial and Memory-Based Lettering
Some lettering projects begin with a person, a line from a note, a family phrase or a signature that needs to be preserved. These tattoos are approached with particular care around scale, clarity and placement.
Custom Lettering and Phrases
Not every lettering tattoo has to reproduce existing handwriting. Elisha can also help shape text-based work around the mood, placement and overall visual language you want.
Lettering With Illustration
Words can stand alone or become part of a larger custom composition with flowers, symbols, figures or other imagery. See Custom Tattoos in Chicago for more complex pieces.
