Should I find a specific artist to do this and what type of work would they need to specialize in? (what words do I need to use to find this person)
I'd want it to be relatively large but I am not yet sure where I'd want it.
Here's a few fractals I am interested in to give you an idea
- Mandelbrot set
- Sierpinski carpet
- fractal tree
- Sierpinski triangle
- Ikeda map attractor
Some if these are obviously harder than others but I am primarily asking about the sections of the mandelbrot set
Feel free to send me fractals you like as well, especially if they are scientifically or historically significant in some way you like
There's been some pretty amazing strides in how the artwork is transfered to your skin in the last few decades. Definitely better methods than when I was just starting out in the 90's.
Most of my work is traditional but a modern leaning artist should be able to knock those out for ya!
Also, as the other commenter below stated, diligent application of lotion after bathing and sunscreen whenever there's a chance of UV exposure will help immensely in maintaining a good looking tattoo after it's healed.
On the subject of healing, I believe most artists use Second Skin after they finish the work. It makes healing so much easier than it used to be. Ask about that as well before you start getting the ink done and grab some if it's not part of your chosen artists process. I still heal with traditional methods but can't recommend that enough for people new to getting work done.
Thanks for the healing advice. Im sure my girlfriend will make sure I care for my tattoo properly lol, she has a couple herself. I have personally seen her use second skin
