Local tattoo artist Rachel “RayBeth” Grasso learned her craft several years ago.

2018 was a busy year for Grasso, who opened INKspired Studios on 720 Broadway in downtown Lorain.

She has a decade worth of tattooing experience and is now taking her show to the road as part of Team Fliction, a competition-based tattooing team.

Led by former “Ink Master” television competitor and longtime tattoo artist Al Fliction, Team Fliction is a competitive professional tattooing team.

Grasso is part of the team and will travel to more that 20 tattoo conventions in 2023. This includes Cleveland Tattoo Arts Convention, March 3-5.

Grasso said she met Fliction at the 2022 Cleveland Tattoo Arts Convention, and he later remembered her as “the girl with the purple hair” after recruiting team member Glenn Wallace to a guest artist spot at INKspired in August.

“He saw the shop; he worked with us for a week, (and) really liked the atmosphere,” Grasso said. “It was about four or five days (later), they were in New Jersey and they called me, and they said ‘We need you for Dallas.’

“I immediately got put straight to work.”

Grasso began crisscrossing the nation in August 2022. At Fliction’s request, she attended the Dallas Tattoo Arts Festival.

“At the end of the weekend, (Al) came up to me and told me that I was one of the highest-grossing artists,” Grasso said.

Grasso received a full-time job after her impressive performance in Dallas.

“To be a full-time team member, you have to commit to 80% of the shows,” she said. “I’m doing 93% of the shows.

“I only took three shows off my tour list, just for commitments at home with my kids.”

Despite the obligations to Team Fliction, Grasso still is available for bookings through inkspiredstudios.com.

She stated that customers who are looking for new ink sometimes book her time in the shop weeks or months ahead of time.

Many tattoo conventions offer awards that can help bring recognition and money to artists or shops.

Grasso is not yet registered to compete for any awards, but she stated that she intends to continue competing throughout 2023.

“My team has multiple award-winning artists.”

Grasso stated that she is likely to compete in the medium, small and large female tattoo categories.

Her speciality is in tattoos and designs that are vibrant and bold.

Weekends on the move offered opportunities for Grasso to show her work around the globe.

She shared that she loves the hustle of her new lifestyle, and thrives under the pressure of traveling.

“I have three all-day sessions scheduled from people that are traveling hours, that I’ve met at conventions,” Grasso said. “Those are thousand dollar sessions.

“I love building the connections, and it also helps, because a lot about tattooing is confidence.”

Grasso will also be touring the United States and tattooing in Amsterdam in September.

She stated that the team is currently trying to book a convention in Milan, Italy for December.

Through all of the traveling, she stated that Northeast Ohio is special to herself and she wanted to be right there with her shop.

She shared that she loves the fact that her downtown Lorain tattoo shop is still open.

“I’ve always felt nostalgic about Broadway, even when it looked not so pretty,” Grasso said. “When I was a kid, I lived on East Ninth Street.

“These were my stomping grounds.”

Team Fliction’s tour schedule can be found at villainarts.com.

Grasso will be appearing at all the shows, except Omaha, Nebraska; Fort Worth Texas; and Oklahoma City.
