01The shop

A strip on East Thompson Road, and one long open room behind the glass.

You find it by the sign — hand-lettered, black and red, spanning the whole front. Below it the windows are painted end to end, and there's a bench on the sidewalk with the shop's name across the back. Nobody builds a bench unless they intend to stay.

Inside, the stations run down one wall of a single open room. Art hangs from the counters to the ceiling. The floor is poured and marbled, red through silver, and it picks up every light in the place.

The storefront of Blessed Tattoo Studio: a painted sign above lettered windows, with a wooden bench outside.

Inside the studio: tattoo stations along one wall, red cabinets, artwork covering the walls, and a marbled poured floor.

02The range

Eight photos on the listing. Six different styles inside them.

Most shops get known for one look. We went through every picture on the studio's own Google listing and counted six — and what's written under each one is simply what is visible in the frame.

Color realism tattoo of Thanos wearing the Infinity Gauntlet on a thigh, with a teal and violet nebula behind him.
Color realism
Portrait work at full saturation — skin, metal and a nebula behind all of it.
Black and grey anime tattoo of a masked ninja character on a forearm, with teal lightning crackling around one hand.
Anime
Black and grey with a single color carried through it, and nothing else.
Neo-traditional tattoo of a black cat's head with amber eyes, framed by a teal triangle, a dotted arc and a crescent moon.
Neo-traditional
Heavy outline, flat color, geometry sitting behind the subject.
American traditional tattoo of a clipper ship under full sail on an upper arm, with orange clouds and blue waves.
American traditional
Bold line, solid fill, a clipper ship and nothing wasted around it.
A black and grey sleeve in progress: a skull in a feathered headdress, an American flag below it, and a fresh outline near the shoulder.
Black and grey
A sleeve mid-build — shoulder still outline only, the forearm already finished.
New school tattoo on a thigh: a cartoon character on a snowboard surrounded by fire and cold blue mist.
New school
Cartoon subject, fire and ice, saturation pushed all the way up.

I’ve been to a few tattoo shops in the past, but Blessed Tattoo Studio truly blew me away. The shop was incredibly clean, the atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable, and every artist there was not only friendly but also talkative, attentive, and clearly very talented. Travis has done an AMAZING job with this shop!

We had the pleasure of working with Chappie, and he went above and beyond for my mom’s tattoo. It was something very personal and meaningful in remembrance of my dad, and he absolutely did not disappoint. He took his time explaining every detail, making sure everything was exactly how we envisioned it and that it turned out perfect.

You can tell he genuinely cares about his work and his clients. This will definitely be my go-to tattoo shop from now on. Highly recommend!

Also, not to be overlooked—make sure you check out the bathroom… let’s just say the luxury heated toilet really elevates the whole experience 😉🤣

Chappie and I just completed my photo realistic flower tattoo earlier this year and I cannot praise his work highly enough. He’s so much fun to work with and during this very long process we laughed, joked, sang and had a blast. The tattoo is better than I even hoped, and I continually get complements on the brightness, the realism, the beauty and all the little touches. Chappie also recently did a revamp and recolor on my first tattoo, and it looks brand new and better than when it was first done. The shop is clean, comfortable and fun and the work I’ve seen the other artists doing always looks amazing as well. I would highly recommend this shop and especially Chappie.

I had an absolutely amazing experience getting a tattoo to honor my daughter. One tattoo turned into 2! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and comforting. The artist was my daughter’s artist as well and he really took the time to listen to my story and combine that with what he knew about my daughter and captured the emotion behind the design perfectly. The attention to detail, artistry, and care made the entire process meaningful and unforgettable. This wasn’t just a tattoo or two—it was a deeply personal experience that I’ll treasure forever. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a piece with heart and purpose! I

Chappie has by far been my favorite tattoo artist. I started getting work done by him in 2019. These are my favorite done by him so far. He is an amazing free hander, also has a lot of patience too since I squirm around a lot(sorry). 😅 In my opinion he is painless to me than other artists that go too deep into my skin. I definitely recommend him, thank you 😁

04The names

Two names keep turning up in the reviews Google shows.

Only four reviews are public on the listing, so this is a small sample. But across those four, the same two names do the work.

We don't know who does what here — only what the reviewers wrote. On the real site this becomes a proper artist page: names, styles, books open or closed, and a way to reach each one.
