Looking for artists in and around Melbourne, Australia that do food themed tattoos? If you have any yourself would love to see them for inspiration, too.

Hi LST members, its been a while since I last posted here, mostly because I recently went back to school and have virtually no money and have fallen out of the tattoo-getting process for about a year.

But I have been trying to look for artists around Melbourne that do a lot of food themed tattoos in classic/neotraditional style, it seems pretty popular oversees but struggling to find what I'm looking for locally.

Any help is greatly appreciated, and if you have any food tattoos of your own or ones you've seen and enjoyed I'd love to see them too.

Thank you!

      What do you guys think of my tattoo?

      By Fig1996 · Posted

      Right! Especially when they go on and on about deeper meanings... people don't seem to realize that there don't HAVE to be these super deep meanings behind tattoos, haha!  I haven't posted my first tattoo anywhere yet, no! But here's a picture of it:  It's not even that special or anything. Frankly, in terms of technique and placement and the like, I like the second one more. But the whole geometric/ornamental generally does pretty well with people I've found. I think for most it's just the right amount of, say, elegance and coolness while not necessarily being too out there yet.  It's also two years old by now so the lines definitely aren't what they used to be LOL, and especially with how admittedly poorly I protect it from sun it could very much benefit from a touch-up but I do still like it.... especially for a first tattoo which I, for all intents and purposes, wasn't nearly informed enough on. People will always ask why the orca, and while there is a story behind this one I'm not about to tell any stranger that. "You see, it all started 15 years ago, when my father........"  😂 I just tell them it's my favorite animal, which isn't a lie, but even then they'll go on about "but why?"  Also, I'd have many a person ask what animal it is. I've heard whale, dolphin (not entirely wrong) and even shark. 😂😂 At least with your piece it's very clear what it is! Maybe that also has something to do with the whole getting people to comment on it... when it isn't entirely clear, people might be more predisposed to ask/comment.  At any rate, I would definitely not consider folks not commenting on your tattoo as proof of them not liking it. I really don't think it works that way! Your tattoo is awesome and you should be proud of it! 🙂 (That, and of course the placement of the tattoo does matter a lot too, haha).
