2) The Tattoo Design

Once you’ve decided that you definitely want a tattoo, the next step is to choose the design that you want. There are hundreds of categories of tattoo design to choose from, including dragon, flower, butterfly, angel, sun, etc. The choice is endless.

Most tattoos are done from predesigned templates. It’s just a case of choosing the one that you want (some are free, but the better ones cost up to $20) and taking it to your choosen tattoo artist.

So visit a number of tattoo related websites, take a look at tattoo design books and decide on the general type of design that you want. Once you’ve done that, narrow it down to the actual design that you want.

Alternatively, if you can’t find exactly what you’re looking for, or you want your tattoo to be unique, you could consider getting an artist to design a custom tattoo exclusively for you.

This option is more expensive (perhaps $200-300 and upwards for the design, depending on size and level of detail), although more mainstream designs will work out cheaper as most tattoo artists will have experience of designing them. However, you’ll have complete control over how your tattoo looks, nobody else will have the same and it will last you for the rest of your life.

Always remember, a good tattoo is not cheap, and a cheap tattoo is no good.

And a word of warning, unless you intend to place your tattoo on a part of your body that you can’t see (such as your back), choose something that you don’t think you’ll get tired of looking at. The worst situation is to get a new tattoo on a highly visible part of your body that you grow to hate within a few months.

It’s also important to choose a design that will be as relevant to you in the future as it is today. This is particularly relevant when it comes to designs that include names.

Many people get their names of their children added to their tattoo. This is a safe option because they’ll always be your children. But think carefully before you get the name of your spouse or partner tattooed over your body. What if you seperate in the future? Will a new partner be happy to see the name of your ex

So you’re thinking about getting your first tattoo. What do you do next? Well, it’s best not to rush off to the nearest tattoo parlour, point at a random design and wait to see your new masterpiece.

Here are five vital decisions that you must make before you proceed any further.

1) Do You Really Want A Tattoo?

A tattoo is a lifetime commitment, so you must be absolutely 100% certain that you want one. You might think that it’s the greatest thing in the world today, but will you feel the same about it in 10 years, 20 years or even 50 years?

Okay, tattoo removal technology is improving all the time, but it’s still time consuming, expensive and painful. So for now it’s best to assume that your tattoo will be for life.

8.—–When you create new works try and adopt a theme for a collection. Single pieces do little to help the buying public form an opinion about you or your work. Some will want to find an artist to collect, so unless they can see more than one example of your work they will find this difficult to do.

So, don’t settle for one painting, aim for at least three or four in a set, it will do much for your credibility and will considerably assist your success.

9.—–Whatever you display for sale, make sure it is accompanied by a Title and a Written Explanation. The buying public love a story, it helps them to understand your work, gain more from the imagery and, believe it or not, such background information will assist them with a good subconscious reason for purchasing. Your information will make them an “informed buyer”. This will in turn allow them to impress their friends when they come to call.

10.—–Finally, in my experience the biggest mistakes artists make is to try and be something they are not or to try and convince the public of such. Painting a woman with an eye on the side of her head does not make you Picasso so don’t try to be. Artists like him are famous as much for their creation of “the style” as they are for any integral artistic ability.

The first rule of creativity is to be true unto yourself, unsuppressed by the need to conform to what others expect or may perceive as “art”. If you do not allow yourself this right of expression you will rarely find joy in painting.

But then you must be able to step out of the “real you” and find a way of harnessing your talent in a commercial way that may have more chance to support you until such time as your own passions are recognised as desirable enough in their own right to earn you a living.

6.—–Wherever your work is on show, make an effort to accompany it so you can talk to prospective customers. Art buyers love to meet the artist in person and you can do yourself a great deal of good by putting in an appearance if only at weekends. Talk to the Gallery, they are sure to welcome such proposals.

7.—–If you are going to sell your work yourself, make use of every opportunity to gain exposure. An excellent new way of doing this is through a fantastic new website facility called DebutDay.com (www.debutday.com).

This site is dedicated to bringing artists to the attention of the World by beating the search engine process and parading you in front of everyone searching for what is latest on the market. It’s inexpensive and you can control what you display and how you present yourself.

It’s probably the most proactive site to arrive in a long time and will do as much to find you a publishing opportunity as it will to sell to the general public. If you are serious about your art, you must make use of this site.

4 —– Only sell if you are satisfied with your work as “original” you will need to develop a good reputation with the good and the relationship between the galleries. The value of art in its perception by the observer. For example, if you are hanging in an exclusive gallery of your work, you are in your local town, alley would expect a higher bid was controlled, so you can strive for the best and get the best wall space. Conversations with several gallery owners and listen to what they have to say. Most will be honest about your work, and the right to tell you how likely it is selling in their creation. Valuable wall space, so they do not waste it. You often will need to bark thickness, so be prepared for harsh criticism. Yes, no matter who you are, some love your work, while other will hate it when.

5. —– According to you and the gallery to talk about a fair price of a fair retail price. If you are not satisfied with the price began to shrink, when the gallery said that when they could sell it in double your price. In their troubles before them and see all the profit they have to charge tax as a starting point, and then take all their costs and actually find your buyer. Therefore, do not begrudge them their share.

Secondly, remember that what you are seeing for sale is what was created for last season. Most galleries stock prints these days for the mass market so you need to know what is coming next rather than what is on show now. Imagine taking inspiration from a style on display only to return with a new offering to be told that is now “old hat”.

3.

You must ensure that you visit the trade shows to see what the publishers, independents and importers are offering next seasons market. Even this will meet you a step behind as the artists on display there are already working on next season’s ideas.

However, by taking guidance from the trade show you can at least sell to the galleries armed with colours and themes in current context. Most importantly, talk to the publishers about your work and ask them about the process of presenting yourself for consideration.
