Maybe you already know what you want your next piece to be. Or perhaps you have a skeleton of an idea and need a little help fleshing out a full concept. We’ll start with a consultation, exploring the inspiration for this design. That inspiration could be anything; other tattoos, print, sculpture or even a building-sized mural. By superimposing the beginnings of a design over a photo of where on your body you want the piece, you can get an idea of what the finished product will look like.
The next step is all about refinement. Taking a sketch and improving it to flow well with the shape of your body. A screen or a sheet of paper is flat, but the canvas of the skin is composed of curves and angles. Musculature provides a dynamic terrain and existing tattoos also need to be considered. Color and detail will be added until we are both happy with the concept, and a session is scheduled before we move onto the last step….
