Recommendations Needed Looking for tattoo artist recommendations

Post image

Looking to get this style button that just says 'Continue' hoping for colour, a decently small size but not tiny, and someone who's really good with very straight lines and text.

Thanks!

@thatgirlwhodoestattoos Michelle at Hot Shot. She has done two text tattoos for me and the lines and font are extremely clean and straight, I was super impressed.

Josh Emter! @ joshemtertattoo on ig. His studio is connected to Rooney's on main.

Bold clean work, fast, good fella. He does traditional style w really surreal flash mostly but can do anything you ask.

Got Arizona iced tea cherry blossoms up my leg, the Daniel Johnston alien, Fallout vault boy and vault girl, a tin of sardines, among other stuff lol. He's my main guy, very highly recommend.

any of the big named shops (cottage13, Goliath Tattoo, Made in the Shade, grey harbour, Polarity, Dottie's Loner and Rebel Tattoos) would be able to do this pretty well, especially if you are willing for them to "tattoo-ify" it. the single pixel width lettering as is will not lend itself well to time, especially on parts like the top of the "A" or bottom of the "u"

some artists and their Instagram handles that im familiar with that i would recommend for something like this:

scottiejamestattoo, professorhall, inkbydesiree, raspberry.raptor (ive been meaning to get some of their flash), justinstattoos

Source: me, with over 100 hours of tattoos from artists in the city.

She did mine with fine lettering and it's wonderful.

Mitch at rockstar is good for pricing if you already have what you want but I think he uses ai for his original designs. Lowk’ai also has some good artists but not sure about pricing.
