The best tattoo ever!

[allaboutv]

Hello All or Nothing!

My name is Venus and I live in Anderson S.C. I have been searching for months for a tattoo that I really want. I came across your web site and I really like the work that I see. I'm looking for someone that can give me a tattoo of some roses and butterflies going down the center of my back. I'm not sure if I want color or just black ink. But I do know that I want it to look realistic and as life-like as possible. I would love to see what some of the artists can come up with and if I see anthing that just takes my breath away, I will be there at your studio the very next day. It does'nt bother me at all to drive two hours for something that I really want. Please help, I really want this tattoo!

venus,

i don't work at AON and don't know how they handle e-mail inqueries, but as a joe schmo artist in little-street-shop-usa, unless i know you personally, or you've paypal'd me a deposit for either an appointment or the drawing, e-mails about tattoos don't register as real for me. i, and i imagine my colleagues as well, get asked to draw up tattoo ideas for people all the time...to the point where, if i took all of these requests at face value serious, i would seriously have little time to do anything else. the problem is, not all of these requests are legit and won't turn into income for me. hence the deposit. 99% of places will deduct the amount of the deposit from the final price of the tattoo so you aren't out any extra money and we at least have a little insurance for the time we put into creating your design.

my advice would be to browse the artist galleries and find an artist's style you like and then call the studio and start making arrangements with that artist. don't be alarmed if they do request a deposit and also don't worry if the initial design is a little off the mark. it can be changed, tweaked and altered until you're happy with it being on your skin.

hope this helped

DrayBono:

exactly what he said, find the artist that suits your style of work your looking for and contact that artist and go from there.
