Quality Tattoo is crazy!
Seems like everyone I known has been visiting Latvia and coming back with sick tattoos, some of the work I've seen would have costed over 5k here in Canada. So after sometime I found myself wandering the streets of Riga myself and after digging into this scene I few out of the country with a double sleeve.
Let me tell you, the level of detail some of these artists have is insane and the quality of work would have costed me literally up to 5X the cost if I were to do something like this back in Canada/US.
I'll do my due diligence and shoot this out there. Alina was my artist and has by far been the best to work out after consulting several different studios and other independent artists. There are definitely a lot of studios that come up on the google top searches but after learning about the scene they are a quick flip type of business usually aimed at tourists and located in the tourists area. Glad I found my new artist for life HAHA.
Never thought that a flight, accommodation, meals and a tattoo would cost less than some quotes I got in North America.
