Bring me your stones, leaves, fossils, kelp, flowers, dried plants, shadows, textures, lichen, chestnut patterns, decaying mushrooms, fern shadows etc. Physical objects or photographs welcome, though please understand that there are some materials that are not conducive to my style (primarily small, tiny detailed, or dense things). Or see my reference library below. There is more to look through person and examples of previous work drawn directly from physical/photographic references in session with clients below. If you would like to consult about whether your reference materials will work, please feel free to email me or set up a 15 minute phone consultation!
Pricing structure: $50/hour of drawing/design time; $150-170/hour of tattooing time. Most pieces require 1-2 hours of drawing and 2-4 hours of tattooing. Pieces that require more than 4 hours of tattooing will need to be split into 2+ sessions. Capped at $900/day
I value your feedback in the design process and want to ensure that your needs, desires and preferences feel heard. We’ll spend the beginning of the session looking at your references and making some concept sketches together. I will then refine the design alone, returning to consult you once I feel it is nearing completion to ask for your opinion and revisions. I will never pressure you into accepting a design that you are not 100% about.
Please limit the references you bring me to 8 images. This can be any combination of references: my own work, images from nature, inspiration pictures. It is most helpful for me if you bring in at least 3 references of my own work, which can include flash pieces, and tattoos that contain elements that you like (texture, contrast, level of detail).
