About Bradley

With over a decade of experience, Bradley Silver is a tattoo artist specializing in abstract graphic blackwork tattooing. His career began with a two year apprenticeship with renowned artist Logan Aguilar at Venus Modern Body Arts in New York City. In 2013, after graduating from his apprenticeship, he started working full time in New York’s Lower East Side at White Rabbit Tattoo Studio, where he developed his voice in graphic blackwork tattooing. Exhibiting leadership skills and dedication to his craft, he was asked to take on the role of Head Artist in 2016, where he was involved in bringing on new talent, team management and studio workspace improvements. During this time, Bradley traveled throughout the United States to guest tattoo in several notable studios, as well as frequenting national and international tattoo conventions, winning first place “Most Unusual 2020” at the prominent Villian Arts Tattoo Convention in Philadelphia. In 2020, Bradley was accepted to join Inked NYC as part of their opening staff. Owned by Inked Magazine, the world’s premier tattoo lifestyle media outlet, Inked NYC was poised to be one of the top luxury tattoo studios in New York City. This was a major milestone in Bradley’s tattoo career as well as a great opportunity to network and collaborate with some of the industry’s finest tattoo artists and high end media team. In 2023, Bradley put a lifelong dream into action and teamed up with his wife - also a visual artist - to build a combined tattoo studio and art gallery near his home in the Hudson Valley. Distortion Society is a multidisciplinary art space in the heart of Beacon, NY.

Policies

Deposit Policy

All deposits are non-refundable. Rescheduling your appointment, especially on short notice, may result in losing your deposit.

Cover-Up Policy

Accepting cover-ups.

Touch-Up Policy

Touch ups must be done within a year of the tattoo’s completion for it to be free. If there are any touch ups that need to happen because the tattoo has some inconsistencies, I am happy to look at them once fully healed and decide whether a touch up is necessary. Touch ups are free and only are considered a touch up if there is a portion of tattoo that is inconsistent with how the rest of the tattoo should look. Additions to tattoos are not considered touch ups.

FAQ

What is your consultation process?

All consultations can be done in person or remotely via Google Meet. To get started, send me an email describing your ideas including size and placement. Include photos of your body where you’d like the tattoo so I can design to your body and also see if there are any other tattoos in the area. Attach any reference images you you think will be helpful including tattoos of mine that you like to highlight specific design elements. From there I will create the best piece I possibly can and then we can have a chat where we discuss the design I made and make any adjustments that you would like. These chats last anywhere from 30 minutes to 1.5 hours so please set aside about 2 hours just in case. This consultation/designing process has a $50 fee. As soon as I see your email with your preferred day along with your design fee, I will confirm that your consultation is in my schedule. All remote consultations are done via Google Meet and a link will be sent right at the time of your appointment. If you need an additional consultation or more designing time before booking your tattoo appointment or after your tattoo appointment has been booked there will be another $50 fee and we can have another round of designing to finalize any details about your project. *******IMPORTANT****** If you have to reschedule your consultation you may do so once without paying an additional $50 fee. It must be rescheduled with 24 hours notice.
