My name is Lewis Chlebek, but most people know me as Chilly.  I've been involved in the tattoo community/lifestyle for over 22 years and am completely consumed by it!  I enjoy the friendships tattooing creates and promise to give your tattoo 100% of my passion and attention.  I've been involved in motorcycle ministry for over 18 years and am a member of the Forgiven Child of God Motorcycle Ministry
Our first shop was located in Antwerp, a small town in Upstate New York.  The town is rich in history as was our 1872 Italianate Victorian building which was a private mansion until around 1940.  From around 1940 until 1971, it was a hotel which boasted a fully stocked bar and hosted large dinner functions.  In 2007, after sitting empty for about 15 years, the building was purchased by us and restoration began.  The tattoo studio was located in a large front parlor which yes, did make it a true "tattoo parlor."  Although it had the character and charm of a vintage home, our equipment and procedures remained very modern.  The studio was intentionally designed to look vintage or "shabby chic" but was equipped with modern, professional tools of the trade. 

We are currently in the process of purchasing a building in Enterprise, AL.  We will carry clothing, jewelry and some other cool stuff you won't likely find elsewhere.

Our pigments (tattoo ink) are some of the best in the industry and include Millenium (Mom's), Intenze, Star Brite, Iron Butterfly, and Kuro Sumi.  Prodigal Son Tattoo is a professional business with a family atmosphere. 

I look forward to working with you on custom projects or applying a tattoo chosen from hundreds of Flash Art images available.  We also stock a small selection of body jewelery.  You'll walk in a client but will leave a friend.
