Okay… so I have four tattoos already and three of them have been done by the same artist at the same studio.

But, I’ve booked an appointment at this studio to get a portrait of Edgar Allan Poe on my thigh, but my original artist doesn’t do portraits so it’s going to be done by another artist.

The problem is, my original artist’s station is right across from this new artist… what am I supposed to do? Isn’t it going to be a bit awkward?

I was just wondering what I should do in this situation? Possibly talk to Angela while getting tattooed by Paul?

Ahhh

Tattoo artist have specialties and unless you want all your tattoos to be in a similar style (or have Filip Leu as your artist), your best bet is to have numerous artist working on you in the style in which they excel. If your artist doesn’t do portraits, they have no reason to be upset in you getting your portrait done by the other guy. If they did do portraits, but not as well as the other guy, they should still not be upset. Simple fact is you owe it to yourself to get the piece you want by the artist you want.
