Many artists have noticed an increase in text tattoos. These tattoos are simple, unadorned, super clean, and increasing in popularity. These are a few examples of tattoos i’ve done in the last month, the most difficult of which was the long poem, (done on adult film star Tony Vega,) which packed so many words in such a small space with a specific font of varying line thickness, that it had to be done meticulously with a tiny 3 needle liner, which took 2 hours just to outline it. (A second session will be done to fill in the letters completely with black.)
