Tattoos

[GimpKid]

Does anyone know of any good old school americana, Sailor Jerry-style artist? I love that style and need some inspiration for a tat.

Yo GK, Check out Steve Byrne and Myke Chambers..

@Max:

It makes me sad that none of the artists you speak of is within my reach. I am thinking of getting another piece, art nouveau style. A bit inspired by John Baizley, maybe. Just don't know where to put it and I want somebody that can do it. Maybe Lilli again?!

Also, has anybody experience with an "original" Maori tattoo?

max…take an easyjet or ryanair flight over to the uk and go to IN2U tattoo or Frith Street.

Thanks, El! I'll give them a looksy.

Very nice

[Max Power]

Oh yeah, awesome. I am thinking of a new one too. But I am unsure which artist to pick, I am considering art nouveau style - so somebody who can do that perfectly would be approbriate.

[Big Eyed Fish]

Do it! I love nouveau style too!

[Max Power]

We'll see…I got to find a good artist at first, then work out my motive...

Hey Flo,

Check out Annie Frenzel.

She's in Berlin. She has tattooed most of my girlfriend's tattoos and she is an amazing artist.

She would be perfect to do the style you are looking for..

[Max Power]

Thank you so much, el! Will definitely do!

[elclintor]

No prob!

here's her blog:  http://germanhammer.wordpress.com/

Thanks again! Funny coincidence - she tattooed the guys from the revival tour (I was there two weeks ago) and has Burg und Schild in her favorites - I met these guys last week at the RW store party. And she looks nice and the tattoos great - so I just need to find out how long I would have to wait…
