Soul Patch Tattoo, about a 30-minute drive north in Riverbank, California. Custom work by appointment.
Turlock clients make the drive because the shop is worth it. We see a mix of Cal State Stanislaus students, longtime locals, and commuters who already pass through the area, and the work tends toward cleaner technical pieces and well-planned color work.
From Turlock, take Highway 99 north, then exit east toward Riverbank via Highway 108 or one of the local connectors. Total drive is around 30 minutes off-peak.
Turlock has a strong art and music community, and that shows up in the consults: more visual-arts crossover, more typography work, more pieces that started as a sketch in someone's notebook.
