No petroleum=good. No glide=OUCH. I cannot imagine how much the wiping would hurt without glide.

Since you are going in knowing that it is going to be a half sleeve then the artist will be able to make it all flow and work with the existing piece.

Love your sleeve idea BTW. Share pics when it is done, please!

But, some people have allergy issues with some brands of red ink. If it is a mild allergy it may just take longer to heal. If it is a worse allergy the ink could be rejected by your body. If there isn’t any itch, pain, swelling, oozing etc. then give it some time.

But you can show it to your very carefully selected artist to use as inspiration, and as a way to show them what you are thinking. Then they can design a custom piece for you, that you will love.
