Ben Around Tattoos & Offbeat is a professional tattoo studio in Charlottesville, Virginia, offering a high-end environment that balances classic aestheticism with popular culture. The studio does not offer piercing services, focusing solely on the craft of tattooing. Founded by Ben Miller in 2006, after he began tattooing in 1993 and later managed Capital Tattoo in Charlottesville, the studio emphasizes fit, flow, and getting each piece right the first time. Ben's own work centers on black & grey, Asian, and hybrid styles that blend black & grey with small pops of color.
The team includes Ryan Whitson, who joined in 2013 and specializes in color work spanning traditional, neo-traditional, color realism, and comic book styles; Molly Freeman, a Rhode Island School of Design illustration graduate who favors mandalas, flowers, animals, and nature-inspired black and grey pieces; and Dustin, a self-taught artist with a passion for black and grey realism and creative cover-ups. Together they cultivate a unique atmosphere aimed at creating custom artwork clients can cherish for years, with a shared goal of delivering outstanding artwork and a genuinely good client experience on every visit.
