replied to the topic Any ideas on what I can do to cover this up? in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 8 years, 9 months ago
Where are you located? It looks like a really straight forward easy cover-up. I do them all the time. There are quite a few bad tattoo artists in my area that keep me quite busy with cover-ups.

Looks nice, in my opinion a more Alphonse Mucha styled lady would be more appropriate with how feminine the flower is. Traditional can be very strong next to other styles. I definitely think Art Nouveau would suit it well.

Thanks for the constructive criticism. I can go back into it again. He’s actually got an appointment for today.
As for getting a tattoo by me, I’ll be at the Cleveland Tattoo Covention in January, the Philadelphia Tattoo Convention in February, the Chicago Tattoo Convention in March, The Rochester Tattoo Expo in April, and guest spots in Indiana,…[Read more]

I’m going to have to get a whole lot better before I ever teach anyone. I would like to go back to the UK though. I was there a few years ago. I had a blast. I’d love to travel and tattoo over there.

There’s actually not a lot of white over the old tattoo. Mostly chalky blues like dusty blue and periwinkle. I have had incredible success with these colors in regards to cover-ups. I’ll try to get a healed photo for you. My client is coming back this week for more.

She is being paid with knowledge. My apprenticeship was shorter, but I too worked for free. Her circumstance may not be ideal, but she had a choice in accepting an apprenticeship at that shop with that artist.

It’s impossible to have an accurate swatch. Every color will be slightly different on each individual skin tone. Your best bet is to mix the color. Basic color theory.

Opaque colors will work well if you choose to add color. I have had luck covering solid black stuff with dusty blue, clay gray, jade green, smoke, and dark ochre. I have some cover-ups posted on my Instagram (@davidjtattoos) with before and after pictures. Any reputable artist will know about and have the colors I’m talking about.

replied to the topic How can fix a blowout? in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 9 years, 3 months ago
Let me preface this by letting you know that I am a tattoo artist. Ears are a very delicate part of the body. The skin is very thin. I don’t do tattoos in or on ears because of the high likelihood of blowouts. I would strongly recommend laser and not getting it redone. You are more likely to have blowouts than not. As far as covering or disguising…[Read more]

Gorgeous carpentry!
I guess the best thing you can do is get a great portfolio together and start hitting up shops. You can meet artists at tattoo conventions too. If you want to learn from the absolute best, you may have to relocate. Some of the best artists are nomads. Where are you located?

I wear XXL gloves instead of XL because when they’re any tighter, I get hand fatigue. XL gloves make my fingers want to stay straight. The larger gloves allow my hands to move more freely. 🙂
