Monolith is proudly family owned and operated, founded by husband-and-wife team Edward and Melanie Kehoe.

In the state of Oregon, you must be at least 18 years old and have a valid government-issued ID. We do not accept school ID cards. If you are under the age of 18, there is no way for us to tattoo you. Even if your parents say it’s okay. It will be well worth the wait and we would love to tattoo you once you’ve reached legal age.
Do your research first—check portfolios online, read studio reviews, and ask friends for recommendations. When you're ready, visit the studio with any reference photos (phone images or printed copies work fine) or just bring your vision and we'll help translate it to paper. If you don't have a specific artist in mind, we'll match you with the right one and show you their work. Then we'll schedule a free consultation to discuss design, placement, size, color, and pricing. Our front desk staff can answer any questions along the way.
Edward Kehoe didn't just want to open another tattoo studio. He wanted to create something extraordinary. His vision for Monolith Tattoo Studio was bold: bring together Bend's most exceptional artists, each a master of their craft, under one roof. Why settle for searching all over town when you could find your perfect match right here? Whether you're drawn to delicate fine line work, bold traditional pieces, or cutting-edge realism, Monolith is home to artists who live and breathe their unique styles. It's more than a studio. It's where artistry meets passion, and where your tattoo dreams become reality.
