Hey Everyone,

This June, Matt and his family will be going back to Bulgaria for another missions trip! They will be going alongside other missionaries and leaders from Calvary Chapel Murrieta and will be hosting a Couples Retreat for the Bulgarians that attend the home base church in Sophia, Bulgaria. While Matt is in Bulgaria, Steven Andersen will be stepping in and helping with the workload and backed up clientele. Rob Hendrickson and Taryn McElvany will still be there but almost always are unavailable for walk ins. So with it being a busy month, Steven will come in handy. Check out his tattoo work below and call the shop to grab an appointment before he is gone.

This winter season’s featured tattoo was Rob Hendrisckson’s (@roberthendricksontattoo) black and grey Family Heirloom. Just another one of a kind custom tattoo that was done these past few months.

Let us know what you guys think of it by commenting below. And if you would like to book an appointment please call the shop at (951) 239-5395 and book before this spring becomes unavailable. God bless and stay Devoted.

Hi Devoted Ink Fans!

We have great news. We have just brought on Rob Hendrickson as Devoted Ink’s newest artist.

We know all of you have been very patient, waiting to get in the books and we thank you for that. Just know that we have been understaffed with artists because we are not compromising with the level of talent that we (and you) should be expecting out of our shop. We also are making sure that the staff we bring on loves the Lord and can always be held accountable to His word. And with those two requests its like a needle in a haystack out there. So lets welcome this needle!

He has a ton of experience and is very well rounded, from black and grey realism to color bio (see pictures below if you dont know what “bio” is). Him and his family just moved into town so come say hi and book an appointment before its too late this summer!

There was a Tattoo Convention called the Central City Tattoo and Arts show in Santa Maria this Cinco de Mayo weekend and Devoted Ink chose this one to be their debut. It was full of good clean tattooing. Matt tattooed the Girl MC of the event and Derek tattooed one of the staff members manning the front table. They got to do a wide range of styles while they were there, from new school japanese, to hard traditional. They were selling a ton of merchandise from hats, to shirts, to stickers. Lyle Tuttle even snagged a few stickers and said he was putting one in his museum and taking the other to France with him. To wrap it up it was a ton of work getting everything in the U-Haul and driving 5 hrs there and back but it was well worth it. Matt and Derek were accompanied by Taryn and Drew McElvany as booth helpers. (check out the tattoos they did below)

Devoted Ink will be releasing a new shirt on May 1st! Available for in store pickup or online. For an online order please E-mail us at Devotedink@gmail.com

Sacred Heart Shirt

Devoted Ink doesn’t normally make appearances to tattoo conventions or expos but this Cinco de Mayo weekend we will all be heading up to the Central City Tattoo-N-Arts expo. Why you might ask? Well lets just say we know the awesome people putting this on and have been assured there will be nothing but good old fashion tattooing going on. No women walking around with “pasties” over their nipples, no huge posters and banners promoting porn, and no dudes with booths selling bongs and weed. So if you and some friends want to make the drive and hang with us your welcome. We will have an awesome booth location and will be tattooing all three days.

17 dollar day pass and 30 dollars for all weekend access.

Kids under 10 are free.
