20+ Years Experience
More than two decades of tattooing across every major style.

Fine-Line & Single-Needle Tattoos in Brooklyn, NY from The Art Scribe Tattoos. Delicate script, thin botanical linework and micro detail need a steady hand. Single-needle work is one of the studio's signature styles, done slowly and cleanly so it ages well. We cover Staten Island, NY, Bronx, NY, Yonkers, NY and the surrounding area.
Details
Fine-line and single-needle tattoos live or die on consistency — line weight, spacing and depth have to stay even from the first stroke to the last. With more than 20 years behind the machine, Joseph builds these pieces at a pace that protects the skin and keeps the linework crisp as it heals. We talk honestly about placement and size, because very small, very fine work behaves differently on a forearm than it does on a rib or a finger, and we would rather adjust the design than watch it blur in five years.
Included
Quality guarantee: every tattoo is executed with care and detail, and if a touch-up is needed once your tattoo has healed we will assess it and carry out a complimentary touch-up where appropriate.

Reviews
Had a great experience with Joey at Art Scribe Tattoo. His private studio is perfect if you want a quiet tattoo session, and the ocean view is a nice bonus. The space is packed with his artwork, which shows how creative he is. He made my vintage bee idea sing and paid incredible attention to the fine-line details.
I loved my experience here. Wonderful tattooing, cool space, very attentive to detail. I got three fine line tattoos and they all came out perfectly.
Amazing first tattoo experience, very calm environment. Did my tattoo exactly how I envisioned it. Perfect place to get a first tattoo. Didn't even have inspiration photos — I just showed him the pieces and he made it work!

Common Questions
More Services
Explore the other services we offer.

You have an idea but no artwork. We start with a free private consultation, talk through meaning, style, placement and size, then design a one-off piece drawn only for you.

An old, faded or badly executed tattoo does not have to stay that way. Cover-ups are designed around what is already on your skin, so the new piece reads as artwork rather than a patch.

Ornamental bands, mandalas and sacred geometry have to be mapped to the body precisely, or the symmetry falls apart. These pieces are drawn to your anatomy.
