Ransom Tattoo Gallery is a tattoo studio in the Village of Ballston Spa, New York, nestled at the foothills of the Adirondacks. The shop is home to a team of artists including Ransom Backus, Shannon McCarty, Leighton Wilkins, Dan Ferrara, Renee Riley and Kat Kling, offering quality tattooing and tooth gems in a clean, safe environment. Alongside custom tattoo work, the studio also provides piercing services and even carries antiques, vintage clothing and one-of-a-kind apparel, giving the space a gallery-like feel beyond just ink. The shop is open seven days a week, Monday through Saturday from noon to 8pm and Sunday from noon to 6pm, welcoming walk-ins and appointment requests alike.
Founder M. Ransom Backus has devoted his life to tattooing since 2008, describing it as his passion, love and culture. His work as a formerly nomadic tattooer has taken him across four continents before he settled down to open his own studio in Ballston Spa. That well-traveled background continues to shape the shop's dedication to continually striving for the highest quality artwork and client experience. With a rotating roster of guest artists also passing through, the gallery offers a broad range of styles and perspectives under one roof, reflecting a genuine, deeply personal commitment to the craft of tattooing.
