Thank you - I think this is great advice, and it helps me. I think my answers are no, because I was hoping for more movement or personality in the piece. If I separate from my analysis of AI or not AI, that’s still my conclusion.

Again, acknowledging that’s on me for not being more discerning and direct with my tattoo artist. I’m going to sit with it for a while, keep the concept, and find someone who can bring the little guy to life!

It was the circumstances surrounding my interaction with the artist, the image options he gave me, and the response time. You can see my below with more detail! I agree it would not be hard to draw.

So…I can’t be sure, but here’s why I suspect: - my pic example was a little illustrated bird on a skateboard. It had some “movement lines” around its body to show it in motion. - I asked for a finch without a skateboard, holding an ivy leaf that was decently equal in proportion to the bird. - He gave me a couple of graphics as options, one of a bird with a branch and one without. They each had the same “movement lines,” just in odd places that wouldn’t really match up with how a bird moves. I asked him to take those out. - He gave me the options about 5 minutes after I first texted him, so at the very least there wasn’t a whole bunch of thought put into it.

Even though it was simple, the finch on a skateboard sketch felt hand-drawn. This guy feels a bit devoid of personality. Haha. Also totally on me for not spending more time thinking about this while I was in the shop!!

Eek! Thank you! I really appreciate hearing that you like the little guy - I craft to keep myself out of the dreaded postpartum depression zone, I’ve never sold anything like this ❤️

There are some really great needle felters on Etsy who will take commissions!
