The Consultation Day

This is a private studio and only by invitation or through friend’s recommendation. Before our first consultation, I normally ask my clients to send me a lot of their ideas via WhatsApp, Facebook or Instagram. This will allow me to build up your ‘image library’ for our discussion later.

During the first consultation at my studio,  we’ll go through the library together, I’ll help you brainstorm and flesh out an initial tattoo design.

This is an important process because I need to understand your vision to ensure that we both can turn the piece into a beautiful art

The ‘Sharpie’ Sketch 

After we both like the initial tattoo design then I’ll use Sharpie pens to draw on your body to establish a suitable size and show my style on your skin.

This process allows me to ensure my design ‘flows’ well on your structure and use my tattoo to enhance the beauty of your body lines.

This sharpie pen sketch also gives you an opportunity to see how the actual tattoo would look like on your body.

The Drawing 

After we both are happy with the Sharpie pen sketch and the measurements, then I will go away and spend some time to research and draw up your design in detail.

The Tattoo 

All of my tattoos are custom designed. I spend a lot of time on each of my clients from the initial design with sharpie pens to the final detail drawing, so that they can see first-hand what their piece would end up looking like on their skin.

For my clients, the most important thing is choosing your design, which will be drawn up by an artist who is proud of his artwork and tailored to suit your body line before you get the tattoo done.

The Price 

The great tattoos by the great artists aren’t cheap; you are paying for an artist’s experience and skill, the years they have spent behind a tattoo machine, their good eye for detail and their ability to produce the perfect tattoo for you that is going to last a lifetime looking good.
