About

Hi! My name is Sam Chase and I’m a 27 year old professional tattoo artist at Sapphire Studios in Naperville, IL. I’ve been tattooing since 2019 but have been a lifetime artist. An illustrator at heart, I live and love working with art and people; some come in, yap, and let’s make some cool tats happen 🫶
I’m a wife, mom of 1 little boy, have 2 cats, and an axolotl! I love video games, community organizing, illustration, and plant-keeping 🍃
My studio is private, all-inclusive, accessible, and ready to offer a curated and comfortable experience to all 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️♿️🇵🇸
***Specialties****: Fineline, smoke/oil abstract, freehand, dotwork, illustrative realism, blackwork, anime/manga, nature and botanicals, and more 🖤*

I love how this subtle take on the Death tarot card came out 💀🪷 This piece originally was designed to go on their foot, but we mutually decided an arm placement would be the better move for that day ☺️ Sometimes we have to change placements to supp

Had a lovely time creating this custom Medusa piece for this returning client 🖤 I wanted to capture a silent-rage type expression. Excited to see this healed and to keep adding to the arm 🐍
