Tattoo Artist Specializing in Custom Designs and Portraits 

Darl Papple works full-time at Magic Touch Tattoo in Pinckney MI inking custom designs for clients in Fowlerville, Brighton, Pinckney, Howell, Hartland, Gregory and Hell. Darl's client base typically extends out as far as Ann Arbor, Lansing and Detroit, though this summer he is excited to have three separate customers driving across country to have Darl tattoo their very specific designs.

A Focus on Photo Realism 

Darl Papple is an artist by profession, specializing in photo realism, though he is able to tackle almost all styles of art. Shying away only from abstract art, Darl has an extensive portfolio of portraits, tattoo flash, paintings, sketches, and 3D steampunk artwork. Darl excels in oil and acrylic, charcoal, pastels, watercolor, pencil, ink, metal work, woodwork, and of course tattooing.

Respectful and Considerate

Shying away from the typical intimidation routine you find at many other shops in Michigan, artist, Darl Papple strives to make his clients comfortable. Darl Papple patiently informs his clients of the tattooing process and is very open with his extensive sanitation procedures. He will inform his clients of possible design flaws in any outside designs and explain ways to ensure that the tattoo will last for decades to come. His "walking portfolio" is more important to him than his online one, so he guarantees his tattoos with free touch ups. Knowing that a major part in how well a tattoo heals is how his clients take care of it when they walk out the door, he will carefully explain the proper tattoo after care.

Darl Papple at Home 

Darl is married to a woman who relishes in and supports his artistic and creative ventures. Darl and his wife Dawn met in Pinckney, Mi when they were kids. They reunited in Howell, Mi after Darl returned home from the army and was residing in Brighton, Mi. They have recently moved back to Pinckney. Tattoo artist, Darl Papple has three children, and aspires to raise them in a self sustainable, earth sheltered home far enough away from people to hear the wind rustle the leaves, see the stars shining brightly in the night sky. When not creating artwork, he is busy helping with the household and the children, tinkering with his 1955 Ford F100 and his bike (a gorgeous red Indian,) tending to his three aquariums, building model rockets and tinkering with lasers and electricity.
