Why Supporting Tattoo Artists is More Important Now Than Ever

Support your favorite tattooers by buying their art online!

COVID-19 has caused millions around the world to change their daily routines, with many refraining from using public transportation or working in a crowded office by practicing social distancing. This can be especially hard for tattoo artists, who only make money if they’re in the shop tattooing. But, social distancing has caused many shops to go appointment only or close up for the foreseeable future. However, there are plenty of ways you can support the arts without leaving your house. Many artists have online shops where they sell prints, apparel and more, shipping to locations around the world. We’ve gathered up a few examples of NYC tattooers who offer merchandise on their websites in the gallery below, take a look at what they’re selling and let us know how you’re practicing social distancing on social media.

Adam Machin—Inked NYC
