Very valid point. So does that mean i have to transverse the entire web trying to find an artist i jive with, if indeed they even have their work displayed online. After all, like i mentioned, i’m stationed in Dubai at the moment and don’t have access to western artists shops, cause finding a good tattoo artist out here, is about as likely as finding a strip club in the heart of Afghanistan.That’s why i thought a good start was to find a designer that could take my vision and make it (whole??) or put all the pieces together to make it look professional. If i am ever moved around to a location where i can find a reputable artist to put it to ink, that’s great. But at the moment, as i’m sure you’ll understand, i want to make sure the design i settle on , i am 100% satisfied with. I will not compromise on the design.since i plan to keep it on me forever. Disagree?????
