Tatted Mom
Tucson, AZ
Female, 32
I'm a tattoo artist who underwent a standard apprenticeship under a certified tattoo artist. I am an artist first, tattooer second, which means I put creativity and art into my tattoos, not just the 'you pick it, we stick it' type of tattooer. Apprenticeships for tattooing vary by state, according to the laws. I'm also a trained body piercer, as well. Any questions about the job or apprenticing, I'd be happy to help!
PLEASE NOTE: I will NOT price tattoos. Seek a shop for that.
Nope. Sometimes spellings can be fixed, and the 'u' could be turned into an 'a', but the 'a' can't be turned into a 'u'.
Share Answer: 
I don't price quote. It says it in my description above. Tattoo prices depend on the artist, the shop, the area you live in, etc. It's best to ask an artist who will actually be doing the tattoo.
Share Answer: 
A good, honest artist would. I don't do portraits. I wouldn't even begin to do portraits. I've had people come to me, asking for portrait tattoos, and I've pointed them in the direction of a portrait tattoo artist. Every artist has a "style". Some don't mind going out of their comfort zones, some stick to what they know.
Share Answer: 
I'd say acrylics. They have about the right consistency as tattoo ink. Once tattoo ink goes into the skin, however, it coats more like a watercolor. Very tricky medium, tattoo ink and skin.

What was your most valuable find in a thrift store?
Without seeing it, it's difficult to answer. You could add some tiny roses to the beginning and end of the date, which will camoflage it, maybe? That's a tough one.
Share Answer: 
Probably not.
Share Answer: 
It's water. They add it in to thin the ink out some. Over time, ink thickens in the bottle, so thinning it out makes it cover easier.
