Meet the Tattoo Artists at Studio 28

The tattoo artists at Studio 28 are a resident team of custom specialists working out of our Chelsea studio in New York, NY. Each one tattoos full time, keeps a distinct style, and designs every piece around the person in the chair. Browsing the team below is the best way to find the right fit before you request an appointment or call (646) 370-6509.

A tattoo lasts a lifetime, so the artist you choose matters as much as the idea itself. Working with a custom tattoo artist in New York means your piece is drawn for you, planned for your anatomy, and executed by someone whose portfolio already reflects the look you want. Our artists collaborate with you on design, placement, and sizing so the finished tattoo flows with your body and ages well. Every artist follows the same medical-grade standards, using single-use needles and sterilized equipment on every client.

Between them, our artists cover fine line and minimalist tattoos, black and grey with rich shading, saturated color, and neo-traditional work with clean outlines. If you are not sure which style suits your idea, that is exactly what your consultation is for. Share your references and our team will point you to the artist whose approach fits best. You can also read the tattoo FAQ for answers on deposits, pricing, and cover-ups before you commit.

Our artists tattoo clients from across the city. The studio sits on West 28th Street, steps from the 1 train at Seventh Avenue and the N, R, and W at Broadway, so it is a short ride from Soho and the Village, a straight trip up the 1 line from the Upper West Side, and a direct run from Lower Manhattan and Battery Park City. Wherever you are coming from, the custom tattoo process starts the same way, with a conversation about your idea.
