Jesse Reip is a black and gray realism artist at Olympus Tattoo Studio in Lakewood, Ohio, originally from Lagrange, Ohio.

Jesse is dedicated to technical precision, creating smooth blends and photo-realistic detail that imbue each tattoo with a custom and unique presence. Client care is central to his process, as he prioritizes collaboration, clear communication, and a comfortable experience, working closely with each client to bring their visions to life. Outside of tattooing, Jesse enjoys making music, creating art, watching movies, and spending time with friends and family.
