mariagerzen Mike’s first tattoo.
We went from “I have no idea what to expect” to “turns out reading a book with one hand is impossible.”

I’m insanely grateful for this level of trust.
It honestly means the world to me.

Mike and I had a blast through 6 sessions, 4–6 hours each.

mariagerzen It’s hard to get me to switch to uppercase…

mariagerzen Yeah, these are all versions of the name Maria. You can pick any of them, just not Marusya, that one seriously annoys me 😄

Did you know about that?

mariagerzen And there’s nothing I can really do about it, other than draw a proper design and make a solid tattoo. Booking link in my profile

Roses and the monkey are fresh, swallows are one year old. Thanks for your patience!

mariagerzen And the hardest ones were the first two sessions.

I like to do as many of the lines as possible first: stencil, freehand, just to understand where everything will go. That’s the most time-consuming stage. After that we move on to coloring and shading.

I honestly don’t know if six sessions is a lot or not. It is what it is. A lot depends on your height, the size of your limbs, your pain tolerance, and whether the sleeve is in color or black and grey.
