Making is connecting project

Printing and Drawing

Brainstorm our group

At the first lesson I was placed in the group printing and drawing, we had to choose a method to research. Me and my big mouth said 'Tattooing' since I love tattoo's I wish to research this method, luckily I have access to a great tattoo artist and a apprentice who can teach me the know and hows of tattooing. These fantastic people are Abigail Eijsbroek (the apprentice)and Pim de Rijk (the artist) Portfolio of Pim who both work at Art of Ethernity Their site under Stefan who specializes in realism. (I will come back to the different styles of tattooing later) I went there to learn the theory basics, see tattooing with an other perception and experience how this culture works in a tattoo shop.

Tattooing with a tattoo machine

Tattooing with a tattoo machine is very different than it looks. (I still need to experience that which i will hopefully next wendsday so I can proper update this page) A link which shows how the machine works in slowmotion. When tattooing with a machine you work with needles, which come in different shapes and sizes for different purposes. Also with a machine you can shade, without not (I'll come back to that later under Stick and poke)

On a stencil you retrace your image so you can stick it temporarily on the skin, wen it's placed you can retrace it with the machine. Which movements to make for what kinds of lines or effects:

The 'flow' to make a tattoo look good it needs to flow with the body:
