Fox & Sparrow Tattoo was built from the ground up by us -- husband and wife Tattooers, Joshua and Samantha Chatwin -- in early 2022. With combined experience of over 25 years tattooing between us, we decided to leave a business we co-owned and create a different type of tattoo studio where art-focused design is fused with a deep respect for the rich history and technical craft of tattooing while making customer service a priority in a clean, welcoming environment. 

​

We bought and completely rehabbed the dilapidated building at 3604 N Wheeling Ave making the beautiful space that Fox & Sparrow Tattoo operates in today. Opening June 11th of 2022 with a party of friends, family, and our amazing clients, we hit the ground running with Sean King and Laura Lynn rounding out our crew and secured the gold medal for Muncie's Quest for the Best our first year in operation. We've hosted a solid group of Guest Tattoo Artists from across the state and country, held multiple Tattoo Flash Events, and took on an apprentice, Ethan Jester, who is doing great and is already shaping into a solid Tattooer.

​

In January of 2024 we had the opportunity to purchase a historic storefront in the heart Downtown Muncie allowing us to serve our clients from a central location and take part in the variety of events that take place downtown every year. Fox & Sparrow Tattoo opened at 304 S. Walnut St on May 2nd 2024 with a First Thursday Artswalk tattoo flash event to benefit local animal shelter, ARF.
