Hi Lauren, I've had to add my feedback to this column as I can't add a column of my own. There are lots of good inspiration on here of photos of styles and techniques for tattoos - however, this is NOT ENOUGH at the moment ! The majority of the posts here should show YOUR OWN DRAWING and skill-building. USE the influence of the images you've collected and the professionals you've researched to make links and show how that is influencing your own work.

line work is very important and having clear readable work. Another important skill is being able to create designs and bring peoples visions to life. Being able to shade and color is another skill that will be used while doing tattoos

Building a portfolio to present will b very useful in finding jobs in the career

in this project I will be specializing in tattoo artistry, focusing on black work, linework design, and traditional. I will be looking at different tattoo artists to inspire my own designs. Through this I will learn about the tattoo business and the artists backgrounds of how they got into the industry. I will structure the project in different themes having artists with research separate to the research behind the styles of tattooin and my own work. Making the work easier to access the specific aspects. As a final piece I will create a portfolio like collection of black work flash sheets and designs. I’m going to track the project by uploading progress pictures and more in depth research xz

A black work tattoo is a bold work of body art rendered in solid planes of black ink. Usually, these tattoos are composed of abstract patterns and geometric shapes, though some feature figurative forms and recognizable scenes and subjects. however the technique can be used for objects, animals and portraits etc.

Old school style refers to a Western or traditional American tattoo style featuring bold black outlines and a limited color palette. This limited color palette typically included yellow, red, green and black. Purple was eventually added to it as well

Like printmaking, linework-style tattoos utilize marks to create their imagery. ... Shading is produced not with fields of pigment, but done in measured tics. Some are small and intricate while others are large and graceful.

while experimenting with different pieces based on my last final project idea of creating a flash sheet, i feel like it does not show off my potential and lacks in showing off skills so i'm redirecting my final project ideas to create a portrait piece with added bits to include previous research of the flower/ nature aspects.

Your change of direction in portrait tattoos is fine, but PLEASE just ADAPT it from this, don't start all over again, because you haven't got time.  At present, there is not enough of YOUR OWN WORK to justify a PASS grade, ..so you need to really speed up and focus if you don't want to risk being REFERED.

1.  Show that you are developing drawing skills by posting relevant tutorials here, together with photos of YOUR WORK.
2.  Show that you have thought about the significance of choosing to have a portrait as a tattoo - what does this express  about the person choosing that image, or communicate to others?;  this is the interesting area of Tattoos as an art form, rather than just a fashion trend....the reasons behind tattoos add a new level to your work.

# data[].attributes.body
today i am going to respond to the feedback and do some drawing

# data[].attributes.body
portrait tattoo's are very personal and can mean a lot to the person receiving the tattoo. it captures people and lasts forever, it can be a tribute to the lives of people and represent the memories made with them. objects can also serve a similar purpose of representing something that's meaningful to the person, these can include certain flowers, pets etc.

I have done some variations of one of my portraits of an expressive person, for my portfolio piece I will use this same drawing and incorporate tattoo style flowers to make it a tattoo that would look good as a tattoo on a person.

# data[].attributes.body
I have chosen to draw expressive people for my portrait pieces, because tattoos are an expressive and very personal art that can show off someone's personality and style. this links the people with the art and keeps the expressive and unique theme.

photos of the arm with pen marking showing the curves and joints of the arm that would be used to create a sleeve or large arm piece. the lines drawn on the arm will help when d3esigning the tattoo, to see where the arm bends and to place the final design or build up a collection of designs to best fit the clients arm.

I was j spired by this tattoo of the contrasting styles

# data[].attributes.body
I think my project has lots of relevant research and some responses to some of the artists work, I think more art pieces and experimentation could have been done in response to the amount of research photos. I think the shift of focus was a good shout as the work after that shows more skills and are more impressive, I think more experimental work is needed next time
