Floral mess
I know, it’s bad. Three artists have been apart of this disaster. I started with one flower. Then my artists left the country. I stayed at that shop, asked to add more flowers, it turned out okay but had flowers in awkward spots.theres too much shading on some flowers, they’re in an awkward spot, etc.
Long after healing, I go to a new shop, asked to add more flowers/leaves but to try and make it blend/flow. Fill in some blank spaces.
It looked nice when the stencil was placed and then it went haywire. I wasn’t picky about the flower or anything.
There’s some spots I really like about the most recent work (you can tell the fresh tat versus the old) especially the leaves closer to my hand but the rest turned into a busy/awkward mess. I like his work, just not how it was placed.
I don’t blame the artist, I know it was difficult to do, but I hate it.
I know you can’t lighten a dark tattoo so I’m going to let this heal, get laser treatment on the area closest to my elbow (that’s my biggest complaint) and cover that with a new tattoo.
Before I go that route, what other options do I have to try and fix this? Would adding some color help make it flow.
I just want it to blend and the only thing I’m not open to is making it too much larger or make it too much darker.
