Owen is one of the best artists in the area. While being incredibly talented, he’s a blast to hang out with and very patient while you discuss what you’re looking for in a tattoo. Regardless of what you want, it always exceeds your expectations in both style and outcome. Owen’s work has been recognized in my tattoos across the country, and I’m always glad I chose him as my artist.

Owen's exuberant painting welcomes us home and greets every visitor who comes through our front door. Each time it brings a smile to my face. Step into to our kitchen and Owen's signature style peeks out from a ceramic bowl, the colorful line work rivaling the bright fruit inside. Our kids love visiting Owen's studio almost as much as they enjoy making art with Owen himself. Owen is a Seattle treasure.

I've been getting inked at Parlor F for more than 25 years. And I can truly say that what I've achieved with Owen Connell has been a much enjoyed, much-admired creative collaboration that I hope to keep going for all of my days.Most ink you see on people's bodies looks to have come from a stenciled drawing out of a loose-leaf folder. Bleh. At Parlor F, Owen works 'with' people, as opposed to on people, to achieve original artwork that's distinctively creative and about you and your life. If it's authenticity you're after in tattoo work, Parlor F's the place.

I've wanted some of Owen's work for DECADES and I'm finally getting it. The shop is cool, comfortable and CLEAN. Owen is a seasoned pro so he works efficiently. This is a huge factor for me, not being a huge fan of pain. I know I'm in good hands at Parlor F.My idea was not well developed when I walked in, I just let him roll with his ideas and I'm so glad I did. His designs are distinctive and unique. And now I have a life-long piece of original art I take with me everywhere.

Owen is truly one of a kind! So far I have been blessed only by one tattoo of his but I will for sure go back for more! He does great work and he is an all around outstanding guy. He listens to what you want and gives you a one of a kind, beautiful piece of art. I couldn't ask for anything better. If you are thinking of getting a fresh NEW tat then I would highly recommend Parlor-F Tattoo. Thanks again Owen!!

I’ve been getting tattooed by Owen since 2002. He’s got a specific style, recognizable all over Seattle. I lived in Portland & LA over the last 20 years, & it was great having work that looks different from everyone else’s. Clean, solid lines. Blacks that don’t fade to green. A unique take on any idea you bring in.

Owen is a wonderful artist to collaborate with. His art is distinctive and unique, but recognizable. He takes time to listen to your ideas, size and site the pieces perfectly on your body and the quality of line work is phenomenal. He is also wonderful and interesting to chat with while he works. He is a treasure. I highly recommend him.

I met Owen 24 years ago through mutual friends. I had a couple of awful tattoos and he did an amazing job re-doing them. Since then, he is my sole tattoo artist. Over the years, I’ve seen random strangers with one of his tattoos - they are instantly recognizable - and it’s an instant conversation starter! I love working with Owen because I can give him a concept, and I completely trust him to visualize it and make it real. He also works in printmaking, painting, glass and ceramics; his work is beautiful and one of a kind.

Owen is a great artist! This is my third tattoo from him and I love all of them. Owen’s studio is clean and private. It is very intimate and Owen is really good at making sure you’re comfortable through the process. I recommend everyone go see him for any unique tattoo design.

Owen's work is famous amongst the Seattleites who have been around the scene for the several decades the shop's been on Capitol Hill. Those of us who are lucky enough to have his artwork scratched into us will spot each other across rooms, clubs and streets and scream "Owen!" as we point. His work is distinctive, beautiful and the COLORS he uses just POP. I went in with a vague Idea, mostly interested in his vision. He drew up a great design and I could not be happier with it. I waited for so long to walk into his studio, so glad I finally did. He works quickly and clean with an extra added bonus of great conversation. If you have been in Seattle long enough to have witnessed the great 80's and 90's scene, then you'll have LOTS to talk about. If you're interested in learning about it from an insider... well book yourself a few hours and buckle up!

When you go to Parlor F, you'll walk out with two things: 1. A piece of artwork or a tattoo that is bold, unique, conversation-starting, and entirely original to you. 2. A great conversation with one of the most genuine, interesting, and fun people you may have ever met. Can't recommend Owen Connell and Parlor F more highly for all your tattoo, painting, and graphic design needs!
