You’re considering a tattoo to decorate your arm, but you’re unsure whether to go for a big piece or a small design. Here are some key points to consider to make the best choice before booking an appointment.
Full Sleeve or Patchwork?
It’s common to start with one tattoo and then want more. So, should you go for a single large project or build a collection of smaller tattoos over time?
A Big Project: What to Know
If you’re thinking about covering a larger area, like an entire arm or leg, here are some important factors:
- Cost: While collecting smaller tattoos at around 200 euros each could eventually add up to a similar budget, a larger project typically requires a more substantial initial session cost.
- Time: A big tattoo takes time to complete. Each session needs to be spaced out to allow for healing, meaning the overall project can take months. Patience and planning are key.
Benefits of a Big Tattoo:
A well-thought-out large piece can look more cohesive and harmonious, with each element designed to complement the rest of the artwork.
Patchwork: A Collection of Small Tattoos
If you prefer varied styles and want to build up a collection of smaller tattoos, a patchwork approach could be a beautiful option. However, it’s essential to maintain a sense of visual harmony among the designs.
Benefits of Patchwork:
You get the flexibility to mix different styles and collaborate with multiple artists, with each tattoo adding a unique story to your personal canvas.
Final Tip:
Whichever path you choose, think about the overall harmony and the story you want your tattoos to tell. A large project can convey a unified, powerful concept, while a patchwork approach offers a mosaic of memories and styles that reflect who you are.
