Kevin Leary
Originally from New England, Kevin Leary started tattooing just outside Boston, Massachusetts in 2008. He made his way out West and worked for several years in Phoenix, Arizona. Kevin then moved to Chicago and eventually found his home at Great Lakes Tattoo. Inspired by traditional tattooing, Japanese tattoos, illustrators like Albrecht Dürer, and heavy metal music, Kevin puts his own illustrative input into every tattoo he does. Whether you’re looking for a large custom tattoo, flash off the walls, or a great lunch recommendation, Kevin Leary is your tattooer. Kevin is available for appointments on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.
