Charon Arts

"I cannot recommend Charon Arts Visionary Tattoo enough!!!!! Pioneer Valley has a hidden gem here...anyone who is looking for stunning organic artwork with a spiritual sensibility, you have found your place! My tattoo experience exceeded my expectations. First, great communication--Leah asked really good questions and was great and accepting and adapting feedback when we were planning my design. She was attentive and worked collaboratively with me to make sure the drawing expressed my vision. I found that Leah was able to incorporate her own artistic style into my design without compromising what I was looking for...she's so adaptable! The studio itself is beautiful--filled with artworks in the gallery in the front, and I was greeted by the smell of sage, bowls of crystals, and relaxing music. The tatto bed is under a sky light which is a nice touch! Leah made sure I was comfortable. In past work, we've even incorporated reiki into the tattoo process! Leah was happy to make adjustments to make sure we got placement and the arms of the cactus in my tattoo just right. Nothing felt rushed. As an artist, she has a super light touch!! This was maybe the best part of working with her--this was honestly one of the least painful and quickest healing tattoos I've ever had in my life! The piece healed beautifully...I love the different line weights and the free-flowing lines that Leah used. Squiggly, organic, and flowing lines that move across the body are definitely her specialty! I feel she's able to imbue her artwork with a visual sense of reverence for the sacredness and the vibration of life. Definitely an A+ experience for me!!!"

"Love this place. McKenzie was super helpful, listened to what we wanted and put her individual touches on the design we wanted for our sister Family Tree tattoo. She was very patient. Will deffienly go choose her again for my next tattoo."

"Not only do the women at Charon Art do beautiful work, they create a comfortable and welcoming environment. From the start of my consultation with Leah I felt she was interested in and understood what I was looking for in a tattoo. She created a visual expression of the elements that I wanted included and she made space for a healing and transformative experience."

"I went to Charon Visual Art Tattoo for a touch up on my old tattoo. Leah did an awesome job on that one and my new one. The place is very clean and very talented artists. If you're thinking about a tattoo, I highly recommend going in, even if just for a consultation."

"This was written by a client Orion "And now for my official review of Charon Art. I will say that i love my newest ink done by Leah. It is a great tattoo and she nailed the drawing first try. The picture below speaks for itself as far as her art skills go. So here are some other reasons to check Charon Art out if you haven't yet. 1) If its your first tatt, then you will appreciate the open and bright studio as it totally gets rid of the anxiety involved. you know what i mean if you have ever walked into a dark dingy body mod shop looking for your first. 2) Leah and her apprentice Simone both have great attitudes! i have walked out of more shops then i have been worked on based off attitude alone. No one likes snobby artist and luckily you wont find any at Charon Art 3) A great deal! With tattoo artist upping there prices constantly, it was refreshing to have someone do excellent quality work at a fair price and at a good pace! Both pieces i have seen done were done quicker then i thought even with me blabbering the whole time! 4) And of course a clean and sterile environment will have you feeling easy! Thanks again Leah and we will see you soon!""
