Dark Pearl Tattoo is an artist-owned and operated shop in Rochester, New York, staffed by three tattoo artists with over 40 years of combined experience. Founded by Chuck and Aric, who began tattooing in 2005 and 2007 and previously ran Tumbleweed together before opening Dark Pearl in 2017, the studio brings together backgrounds in fine art, graphic design, and illustration. The shop has been recognized as a Platinum winner by CommunityVotes for its skilled staff and commitment to bringing clients' unique visions to life.
The artists work across a wide range of styles, including custom pieces, coverups, color, black and grey, illustrative, realism, neotraditional, fine line, and script work. The studio maintains a professional yet laid-back and comforting atmosphere, welcoming both returning clients and first-time walk-ins from initial consultation through final touch-up. Beyond tattooing, the shop is closely tied to its Rochester community, partnering with other small businesses, hosting fundraisers, and supporting local donation events. That community connection, paired with genuine artistic passion, defines the studio's approach to its craft and its neighborhood.
