Gaya's homegrown tattoo studio — Indian craft meets modern realism
Ricky Tattoo Art Galaxy began with a sketchbook, a railway-station-side shop, and one promise — every tattoo would be drawn by hand, never traced. Five years on, owner Ricky Baranwal and his team have inked more than 500 original pieces for clients across Bihar — mandalas that echo our temples, realism portraits in dot-work shading, tribal armbands, and custom designs that walk in as ideas and leave as stories on skin.
Set inside the Maa Vaishno Complex at Bata More — minutes from Gaya Junction — the studio runs 10 AM to 10 PM, every day of the week. Walk in for a consultation, or book your slot on WhatsApp. Every needle is single-use, every design starts from a fresh page of the sketchbook, and every session ends with aftercare guidance our regulars swear by.

Indian Folk Specialist
Signature work in mandalas, India-map ornament tattoos, and Madhubani-inspired motifs — craft heritage on skin.
सेवा What We Ink
Disciplines we sit for
Six core services, all drawn fresh in the sketchbook before the needle ever touches you.
Custom Tattoo Design
Bring your idea, a reference, or just a feeling — we sketch it, refine it through revisions, and ink it. No tracing, no recycled flash sheets. Your piece is yours alone.
Mandala & Indian Folk Work
Hand-drawn mandalas, India-map ornaments, Madhubani motifs, Devanagari script lettering. Our signature category — built for clients who want their roots on their skin.
Realism & Portrait
Black-and-grey realism — portraits, ships, animals, cinematic scenes. Detailed dot-work shading and three-dimensional depth that holds for decades.
Color Tattoo Work
Vivid color work — 3D butterflies, neo-traditional florals, geometric color blocking. Saturated pigments that hold true under Bihar sun for years.
