lynellej1 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Hello there My name is Lynelle. I have the outline of a koi on my shoulder that I'm looking to get shaded and colored in. I'm also hoping I can find someone to help me design a half sleeve that im in love with! Its with a lace background. I am just not the best at drawing.... or placement. Lol. Anyone know who can help? ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Hi Lynelle and welcome to LST. Tattoo artists tend to be pretty good at drawing and placing tattoos, if you let us know where you live we can suggest some quality artists in your area. tatB, guitguy, Duffa and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lynellej1 Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 I would but its been so long (5 years). After I got the outline I went to the hospital for a kidney infection (not related) and then found out I was pregnant a few weeks later. My son just turned 4 and I'm finally able to save a bit of money... The tattoo parlor is still there but they said he moved to Az... My fault for waiting so long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lynellej1 Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 Well I think i found a place in Laguna Hills ca called White lotus. Anytime I say the name someone in the room says they have recieved a tattoo that they love from them. I'm going in monday to check out the place and the tattoo artist who's work I liked online... But orange county ca is where I'm at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun1105 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Well I think i found a place in Laguna Hills ca called White lotus. Anytime I say the name someone in the room says they have recieved a tattoo that they love from them. I would say you will be in good hands at that shop, from their online portfolios it looks like they do pretty good work. (White Lotus Tattoo) That being said, because you live in California you have your choice of so many amazing artists within a reasonable drive!
