Jesse Reip is a 22 year-old tattoo artist from LaGrange, Ohio. He has been creating art his whole life in a variety of forms, most notably in music—which has racked up over 30 million streams. Now, that same creative energy is being put into tattooing. When he’s not working on his craft, he enjoys going to concerts, playing guitar, and spending time with his friends, family, and two dogs. He aspires to be among the top black and gray realism artists in the region, with macabre surrealism being his strong suit.
