Portfolio

The work speaks first.

Every piece here was drawn for one person and healed on real skin. No flash sheets, no copies — your tattoo starts as a blank page.

The Social Club

It's called a club for a reason.

Studio 31 isn't a walk-in mill with a buzzing front counter. It's a quiet, private space where the lights are warm and every wall has something on it worth looking at. You come in, we talk through your idea, and you get the chair to yourself.

If you know what you want, you'll feel at home fast. If you're still figuring it out, that's what the first conversation is for.

  • Private, by-appointment sessions
  • Custom artwork drawn for you
  • Clean, licensed, single-use everything

What makes us different

Worcester's only tattoo museum.

Under the same roof as the studio sits a collection that traces where this craft comes from — the machines, the flash, the people who built the trade in this city. It's part of why we call it a social club and not a shop.

The Artist

You work with me, start to finish.

No rotating chairs, no handing you off to whoever's free. I take a handful of projects at a time so each one gets the design time it deserves. We sketch, we adjust, and we don't book the session until the drawing is right.

A non-refundable deposit holds your spot and goes straight toward the design work. Session rates depend on the piece, and we sort that out once the artwork's settled — no surprises.

Worcester already trusts the chair.

One hundred and twenty-five people took the time to leave a review, and they landed it at 4.8 out of 5. That's the part I can't write for myself — read it in their words.
