Continued Project A continued project is adding to an existing tattoo that we’ve already started. This can include finishing unfinished areas, adding new elements, adding extra details and shading, expanding the design, or building onto the original concept while keeping the piece cohesive and flowing together.
Please include a picture of the tattoo we started (straight on view). I use this image to design the next section.

The Circle of Life a life and death piece that explores the full cycle of existence:
birth, growth, decay, and new life. Using imagery that reflects the interconnectedness of life and mortality.
This could be a piece representing mortality, the acceptance that everything dies but it's necessary for the cycle of life.
It could be a representation of a new chapter. leaving a part of your life behind and starting a new chapter. And it could mean nothing more than the appreciation of nature.
These are my favorite pieces to create. I am open to whatever you feel drawn to within this subject. I typically like to do an animal, skull (human or animal), skeletons, to symbolize the death and then lots of plants, mushrooms, insects, to symbolize the growth.
For example: a decaying animal with growth coming from the exposed ribs - mushrooms and plants with bees to represent the new life.
Customization ideas:
a specific animal skull.
Specific flowers, plants, or bug
A specific biome - Desert, forest, jungle, etc.
*Larger scale projects, especially those with multiple elements or detailed additions typically require multiple sessions to complete.

Bugs! We can do a bug floral piece, just a stand alone bug, anything bug related!
Bugs are one of my many obsessions. I am taking an entomology course right now and learning so many cool things about insects. I would love to do some bug tattoos on some fellow bug nerds.
a stand alone bug would take a half day (my minimum). Anything else will require a longer session.

Pet Memorial or Tribute I'd love to do more pet tattoos.
Any pet… a dog, turtle, spider, llama, chicken, anything.
Can be stand alone or with flowers/other elements like flowers or plants. We could do an ornate frame with the pet's face inside.
These take a lot of time and detail so a full day minimum is ideal.
*I need high quality pics of your pet so I can make sure I can tattoo it properly. I can't use a blurry photo from far away. I will pretty much use the exact picture you send me of your pet, so the angle is something to keep in mind also. Please upload the desired ones in the submission. Thanks!

Poison Garden A garden full of poisonous things.
Tell me your favorite ones or just let me have free rein.
Maybe a large scale piece with poisonous plants, bugs, and maybe some little skulls hanging from the branches.
It's helpful to know if you do or don't want certain elements like bugs or skulls before I design it.

Surrealism Oh give me something weird to create.
Eyeballs, hands, teeth, bugs, whatever.
I can take your idea and make it surreal.
We can do ethereal surreal or eerie surreal.
Maybe a hand holding flowers but the flowers have eyeballs.
Or a person with a butterfly as a head.
I love Dali's work. We can do a Dali inspired piece. I also love Welderwings inspired pieces (look them up, they are really cool)
This is my fav subject to be given creative freedom, but some theme direction is helpful.
