Tengu Yama Studio

Anna was my first tattoo experience and I had to go back for a second one. She made me feel incredibly comfortable and helped me decide on a final design and placement. Her work is unbelievable. Rodrigo and Anna have created the most stunning studio and ambiance.

I got two tattoos done by Anna Melo and I would never ask anyone else to do it. Anna and Rodrigo both are incredible artists who are kind, talented, gentle and passionate

At 54 I received my first tattoo with my daughter for her 18th birthday. It was such a wonderful experience with incredible results. Anna is a super star artist and she communicates exactly what is expected, she listens and creates beautiful body art. My daughter has gone back for her second tattoo, and has more planned.

Incredible private space with views of a creek and waterfall. Gorgeous! Photos don’t do it justice. A space that many artists dream about.Rodrigo is a patient and skilled artist with many accolades and years dedicated to his craft.I’m getting slightly bigger than 1/2 leg sleeve done. First session done.Rodrigo gave sound advise related to the design, placement and harmonious aesthetics in relation to other ink on my body. Excited to progress with this project.WORD TO THE WISE➡️ If you are traveling from out of town… seriously consider flying in to Albany. Stay in Woodstock (cute little village in the foothills).I didn’t and it would have saved me so much aggravation. Driving in from Manhattan was a total nightmare.Rodrigo tells me there are rooms for $80/night in Woodstock. Can’t beat that. Did I say the town is beautiful? Tons of hiking trails, fishing and peaceful surroundings.Treat your visit like a trip to a destination spa. Take it slow and chill. You’ll have some fabulous ink and treasured memories for a lifetime.➡️ And bring cash for Rodrigo. Technology is not fool proof and you may have issues paying. Cash will save you embarrassment and less trouble for Rodrigo.
