Rising Stars: Meet Keir McLemore of Memphis

Today we’d like to introduce you to Keir McLemore.

Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
Inkfest was founded in 2023. It was an idea i had for a while. Since i have been a tattoo artist i never saw a tattoo festival in the city and thought it was be a great event to bring more exposure to the Memphis tattoo community.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Definitely has not been a smooth road. It’s a new idea so some people don’t fully understand what’s going on.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I’ve been tattooing for 15yrs. My style is bold & clean. I mostly do large scale freestyle pieces. I’m known for clean smooth tattoos that heal very nicely. At the moment I’m most proud of myself for never giving up! What separates me from others is that I’m willing to put in the work to become successful

Is there anyone you’d like to thank or give credit to?
Shaundrea Belio – Inkfest coordinator, event manager
