Hi i'm new here!
Signed up because i'm at a complete lost of what to do about my coverup tattoo that covered up the baby angel (see pic).
I love the hibiscus but hate how the peony flower came out. I hate the yellow and I think the peony is positioned weirdly. The yellow represents the inside of the peony.
So i'm torn because i'm stuck with a half-loved tattoo and i'm having such a hard time finding examples of tattoos that go along with the hibiscus because it isn't a "realistic" tattoo but it also isn't too cartoonish.
1# question: should I change the yellow to blue OR what other color do you think would match?
2#: Would it be possible to cover it up with something else? (I've ran out of creative ideas)
3# any recommended coverup artists in FL, the USA or Europe?
Coverup for my coverup :(

@Dan
thank you. I would definitely love to avoid a coverup. I just can't get over how much I don't like the yellow/brown. Maybe if I add leafs to it i'd like it better. I just think the yellow/brown blends in too much with my own skin color. Other than that I absolutely love the hibiscus. I'm just having a hard time envisioning what color I can change the yellow to based on the purple/blue combo.
@Gingerninja You're totally fine! I do plan to live with it for awhile until I find a tattoo artist that i'll have zero doubts about. I got the blue/yellow peony tattoo 2 months ago and the hibiscus 4 months ago. I agree it definitely looks professional but the yellow/brown colors were just disappointing.
@jaimilyn Thank you! I'll just have to suck it up and not feel so self-conscious about it.
P.S: any idea where this style of my tattoo falls into (eg: illustrative, realistic, .. etc) just so I can find similar examples while I research?
