Hi, I just moved to Miami and want my first tattoo. I'm looking to get a fist-sized sun-like tattoo on my upper arm with color. I say sun-like cause I want to leave the artist a little room for creativity, nothing cookie cutter.

Of course I've heard of Miami Ink; does anyone have any opinions on Ru Tattoo on Washington Ave in S.Beach? Any other places to recommend?

Also, if anyone can point me to some designs of this ilk I'd be happy to see them. I'm looking for earthy, circular, yellow/orange, rays, artistic - not cartoon-ish, no faces in the middle, not lightning bolt/hard edge rays.

Thanks. George

Well, your in the perfect place Miami Ink on the south beach strip.
Why would you want to go anywhere else they are amazing at what they do.

know anything about Ru Tattoo?

Hi

I did a tour of the miami tattoo shops some are great many average a lot of them shite.

I would however recommend

http://www.tattoosbylou.com/

These are some great artists and very friendly they even posed for some serious front and backpiece designs that they have.

Another I would recommend is

http://www.southbeachtattoo.com/index.html

Especially Ken Cameron - one fantastic artist there (they are all good but he is a serious veteran especially if you want portrait work)

I checked out the RU tattooed site and have to say there is some nice ink work there - not been in person but the art looks good.
