Large Feminine Phoenix tattoo
What an experience I had doing this thigh feminine Phoenix Tattoo. She approached me with the request to draw a phoenix for her customised, I happily accepted the request as I love drawing, and she seemed happy to go ahead. As our consultation passed by, she mentioned to me, that, she made the same request to other tattoo studios, and they mentioned she had to bring the image ready for them to tattoo. And she insisted, could you design something customised for me, and they insisted saying no, we need the image ready for us.
I believe, getting prepared for my clients, getting a design customised specially for them, and understanding and getting in to what they want done, is one of the most exiting parts about being a tattoo artist. Some Tattoo Artists mite enjoy Tattooing, however, I enjoy every aspect of it, including cleaning the studio, to make me feel comfortable and my clients comfortable, looking after my clients, making coffee and tea, making videos, learning new skills, painting, drawing. All things around tattooing I enjoy working on, that’s why, any tattoo request for me, I see it as an opportunity.
I believe, the more time I spend planning a tattoo, the better it comes out, so spending time making sure the design is as good as it can be, its imperative. I have designed the head of this Phoenix, about 7 times, erasing and erasing, until I was happy with it. This inspiration came from when I heard the story, about how “Smaug” the dragon from “The Hobbit” the movie was designed, apparently they designed that Dragon 100 times before they went ahead with the final design. When I heard that, everything made sense to me, based on how good that Dragon actually looks, if you have not seen The Hobbit, I would recommend, that dragon is out of this world.
