Hey, I'm Matt Wake - aka Lou's Kid.
I'm a professionally licensed tattoo artist and illustrator based in Rockville, Indiana. I grew up in Rockville, but for the last 5 years I've lived out on the West Coast successfully tattooing in one of the most competitive tattoo markets in the country.
I moved back to my hometown with a vision to bring good, quality tattoos to the beautiful state of Indiana.
I am a private studio tattoo artist that specializes in iconic black ink tattoos. I offer:
CUSTOM DESIGN TATTOOS
One-of-a-kind tattoos designed from scratch. Offering everything from delicate finger pieces to full sleeves and large-scale back work. Often start with a consultation - virtual or in person.
FLASH TATTOOS
Carefully designed and hand drawn ready-to-go tattoo designs. Check out the website for the most recent flash drop. Flash tattoos are the perfect solution to answering your biggest tattoo question: “what should I get?”
EVENT TATTOOS
Lou’s Kid Tattoo isn’t just a private studio artist - we also tattoo at events in our ready-to-go mobile tattoo studio. We go where your event goes. Perfect for weddings, private parties and special events.
WEDDING TATTOOS
Partnered with Uncharted Elopements for custom wedding-day tattoos for couples, wedding parties, or guests - whether it’s matching designs or pre-set flash tattoos.

(Shout out to my Mom, LouAnn Wake, for playing her part in the naming of my business over five years ago when my tattoo business first began.)
