Meg C. Working on the Plumeria tattoo today was a good experience in that we worked mainly on shading versus lining. I was able to see how certain colors blend better with some and not so much with others. I hope I can get better soon though.

Learned more in 4 days at TattSchool than at actual apprenticeship!

Shading came much more natural to me…

Meg C. Today was a DEFINITE improvement! Granted I came in at the ass-end of a cold, but I wasn’t feeling too confident. Shading came much more natural to me than lining. shading had a similar feel to using an actual pencil, and having the web layout for our first shading piece was a great pick.

Practice…
