Hi,

I first debated the concept of a tattoo 5 yrs ago and have changed my mind on what I would like my first tattoo to be throughout.

I have gone from Tribal Half Sleeve to Polynesian Tribal Full sleeve and now to Black and Grey Full Sleeve.

I now feel glad that I haven’t rushed into getting a tattoo as looking back at some of the tribal designs I had researched, they now do nothing for me.

After doing further research, which has been somewhat frustrating as I was unable to find a style or theme, I have found work done by James Spencer Briggs from the US that has really stood out to me.

Please see tattoo in the following link: http://media-cache-ec0.pinimg.com/736x/59/15/e3/5915e38471139bef0027862e46b9feda.jpg

I currently live in West Yorkshire and also travel back to Stoke-on-Trent frequently. Could anyone recommend an artist in/near these areas that are of a similar style.

I am also struggling to find a theme that I want to portray in this style. Could anyone help with the thought process in selecting a theme as I do not want to go with a theme that has no meaning and will be “out of fashion” in a few years.

Sorry for the lengthy post.

Best Regards,

Shaun
