Freedom Tattoo Studios

Freedom Tattoo Studios has been Vernon's premier tattoo studio since 1999, serving the Okanagan for over two decades. The shop is home to owner and artist Riley Armstrong, who came to tattooing after years working as a master carpenter, a background that shaped his precise eye for measurement and detail. Riley hand-draws all of his custom tattoo designs and is especially known and sought after for his cover-up work. He works confidently across every style, continually building a portfolio of large, captivating pieces designed to move naturally with the body's contours.

Clients describe a clean, comfortable, and welcoming atmosphere from the moment they walk in, with staff who take time during consultations to walk through ideas and options before committing to a design. The studio's approach centers on listening closely to what each client envisions and translating that into a finished piece worth the wait. Consultations and appointments can be booked directly with the studio, and all clients are required to provide proof of age and identification before getting tattooed. Located in Vernon, Canada, it remains a trusted destination for custom work and coverups alike.
