 These sessions are catered towards those who are familiar with their artist's portfolio & trust that their artist will deliver a result they will be happy with without the need to see a pre-drawn design.

 

Projects NOT suitable for freehand:

mathematical/geometric designs
designs with perfect symmetry
portraits of existing people or animals



Projects suitable for Freehand include:

Animals, People, plants/flowers
anything that does not require perfect symmetry
or mathematical/geometrical perfection.


 

 

 
important notes




*Rates are subject to change. However,
the rate you were given at the time of your initial booking will be the one that applies to your session.



I.E. Rate changes do not effect active sessions.
 only apply to  applicants booking after changes.




 

 
 
How do these sessions work?

the design process begins on your session date.
-
Your artist will refer to whatever reference material
& design specifics you have provided to prepare.

-
Once your skin is cleaned & prepped, your artist will
draw a rough guide directly onto your skin to
outline 
the general fit & layout of the design. 
-
You can then request changes if needed.
-

Your artist will redraw or edit the stencil until you
are comfortable moving ahead into the tattoo phase!
