March Overview
Well, March certainly came in like a lion with all the Friday the 13th appointments. Over 40 people got Flash tattoos this month and we were so happy to do them! November’s Friday the 13th Flash Event will be featuring all new flash, so you may want to come back for more!
We are starting to streamline our online shop and clean it up for an easier shopping experience.
Next month is the New England Tattoo Expo at Mohegan Sun in CT. Caroline, Koryn and Casey are all taking appointments, so book now to save your spot!
Another interesting interview
Our second Friday the 13th of the year was another success! We might not be able to wait until November for another Flash Event!
The reservations are booked for the New England Tattoo Expo at Mohegan Sun in CT. We hope to see you there!

February in Review
Our Friday the 13th Flash Day was a success, better than we ever imagined! We found the sweet spot that packed the house and caused us to make Saturday an overflow day. We love the idea of quick, easy, inexpensive tattoos and apparently so do you! We had so much fun this month, we’ll be doing it again next month!
The year is starting to ramp up now. We’ve been getting emails inviting us to future events and to confirm events we’ve registered for. Keep checking the blog for updates to our events schedule and convention dates.
Our artists are working hard on new and exciting tattoos, check out the socials to see their most recent work whether it’s tattoos, flash or other art.
The online store is being updated weekly with Radiant Energy merch and our personal art. All artists take commissions if you want something you don’t see, or need a very special gift.

Flash Day Frenzy!
Friday the 13th Success!
The first Friday the 13th has come and gone, but there is another on on the way! We had such a great time tattooing all the clients who were able to make it in that day and the over flow day. We are looking forward to March 13th when we will do it all again. The appointment book is starting to fill up, so call or text 732-503-8469 to make your appointment today! We will be offering the same flash and possibly some new images as well.
Again, these images will be $50 each. We are only tattooing on arms and legs, but if you want a different location, these images will be available at regular price all year round.
First Responder Discount
Radiant Energy Tattoo offers a 10% first responder discount to many of the public service branches as a thank you for all you do for the community. Since we’ve opened shop, we’ve always offered a discount to active and retired police, fire, first aid, and military.
With so much uncertainty and stress these days, we are more grateful than ever to have heroes in our midst. So, this year we’ve expanded the discount to include nurses, medics and 911 dispatchers. We may have inadvertently forgotten a branch of service. If you have served in this capacity, but your branch is not listed, bring your ID and ask about the discount.
The discount is non-transferable and non-refundable and requires proof of service.

January in Review
It may not look like much has happened at the shop this month, but so much is going on behind the scenes!
We also introduced a Refer a Friend program and are working on other customer appreciation programs to be established in the future.
Radiant Energy Online Store
The biggest behind the scenes project that happened this month is our online store! All of us at the shop have had a part in getting it up and running and we are proud of our accomplishment. More products are being added every week, so the store is ever changing and improving.
Our online store has 2 sides, we have the Also in Shop side that is full of tangible art created by our tattoo artists. It is available for purchase online or in the shop. In addition to the prints that each artist created, there are ceramics created by Casey and Caroline, paintings created by Caroline, plaques and wall hangings created by Rich, crocheted items created by Doreen and hand painted accessories created by Caroline. We also have some SkyGraphix t-shirts still available in the shop that are so cool I can’t believe we have some left!
The other side is our Print on Demand side. This is the side where the logo merch is listed. There are a lot of cool items with Radiant Energy logos that will be printed on demand (duh) and drop shipped directly to your home! While some of the apparel is seasonal, and will become unavailable at certain times of the year, the Lifestyle section of the store is year round and packed with awesome gifts for your Valentine or yourself! The weather is going to get colder before it gets warmer, so check out our sherpa blankets on our Lifestyle page here!

Casey - doomsayer.art
Casey is a tattoo artist specializing in fine line and neotraditional with just over a year of professional experience. Her work blends clean technical execution with thoughtful storytelling, drawing inspiration from nature, nostalgia, mythology and horror.
As a self taught visual artist who has been drawing and painting since she was a child, Casey has been a working artist since high school and has done mural work around the county. It has been her dream to tattoo since she was a young girl drawing tattoos on her Barbie’s arms and legs.
Since completing her apprenticeship in Sept. 2024, she has continued to refine her craft through ongoing education, collaboration with fellow artists, and a commitment to client comfort and communication. Whether working on first-time collectors or seasoned tattoo enthusiasts, she aims to deliver tattoos that age well, feel personal, and carry meaning.
When she’s not tattooing, she enjoys painting with oils and acrylics from small canvases to large walls, drawing with graphite and charcoal, sculpting with all types of clay, and creating art digitally as well. She also teaches pottery wheel classes on weekends!
