Checked her work out before also…sighs…ill keep on looking. im sure ill see you at the show…im one of the dudes noticing and appreciating other work for sure…i will look for you…

Off topic…dude in my area wants 250 an hour…blew my mind considering the no name artist and work being done. i just got done yelping out ivanas shop…150 hour rate and people are complaining? Seven years ago i was throwing out 100/hr in Japan which equated to like 100 dollar to 140 yen (at the time) what is average for quality work these days? for real?

I ask quality because the few sessions i have had done stateside arent to scale what im reaching for and dont feel like under/over paying

Pretty sure im simply going to drive la until i find the right fit.

The right is certainly Japanese. the left Im really feeling something like biblical vintage flash with a David bowie (not actual David bowie) labyrinth feel to it. it seems like a lot of ink mag artists ie mike devries n Liz cook are doing realism stuff which is cool but Im feeling down for the ink in color n detail like the two just not so real. Biblical ish labyrinth vintage flash with some cosmos ties. traditional i suppose? Im really open to flow along broad lines. it is art and to me to be canvas i feel like meddling in the medium and letting an artist feel free helps. would be stoked to get a womans touch flowing

Honestly itd be nice to find a go to artist. i have a full back piece and calf sleeves planned out…i need a solid artist. Time and of course pennies….

Neo traditional
