A private studio in Allentown for one-on-one custom tattoos. Excellent work, fair prices, and a five-star reputation.
THE INK BEHIND THE WORK
Two artists. One studio. Every piece custom.

Three ways to get inked at A1 Gallery
From the first sketch to the final line, we keep it personal. Custom work, free consults, and touch ups that actually match.
Custom tattoos
Original designs drawn from scratch, just for you. No flash sheets, no cookie-cutter pieces — every line starts with your idea.
Free consultations
One-on-one design session to map out your piece. We talk placement, size, style, and get the sketch right before any ink touches skin.
CUSTOM WORK
Not every idea needs a flash book
We design every tattoo from scratch. You bring the thought, and we handle the rest in our private Allentown studio.
One drawing, one client
Your design never gets reused. We draw it fresh, just for you, and we don't rush the sketch.
Your style, not ours
Tell us what you're into — realism, traditional, blackwork, fine line. We adapt to your idea, not the other way around.
