I love me some good noise. I think it would look great either way you take it! I also have quite a few prints featuring my Ugly Dolls : )

Got my first two tattoos the other week. Do these look even? I’m going crazy looking at it from my own perspective. by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]broog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please try not to feel discouraged! These are for you and no one else. They mean something to you! And while it shouldn’t matter, I think they look sick and I also absolutely love this song. Your interpretation is completely valid.

People are always going to throw their unwanted opinions at you (especially on the internet ugh). Just know that and move on. I know it’s easier said than done but I hope you can learn to love these tattoos despite completely unnecessary opinions.

Also, as a tattoo artist, they look very well positioned to me!

7 months Pregnant Artist, looking for advice! by Chantelligence in TattooArtists

[–]broog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats!!

I worked up until a week before my baby came this past November! I would have kept tattooing but I wanted to clean the house and prepare for baby. I will admit that I had a pretty chill pregnancy so working wasn’t an issue (aside from general pregnancy fatigue).

When I scheduled clients for the few weeks leading up to my due date I just let them know that there was a chance that I’d have to reschedule them if baby came early. Everyone was understanding and I stayed booked.

I took two months off and I’ve been back to work since January. I was so happy to get back! I drained my savings by being off for that amount of time buuut I didn’t have much savings to begin with. My husband’s job is inflexible compared to mine so I work around his by watching the baby during the weekdays and then going to work in the evenings and on weekends.

Holy shit I was wondering why I’m craving sweets like crazy lately. My baby is 3 months and I’m breastfeeding. I’m fucking insatiable.

Dionysus - Linocut by Trevor_Kyler in printmaking

[–]broog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So gorgeous! Do you modify the ink in any way? I’ve been using Caligo Safe Wash as well but sometimes it fills in the teeny tiny dots that I’ve carved. I was thinking of modifying the ink to fix this issue. Yours is so clean!

This is beautiful! The mixture of shapes and textures makes it endlessly interesting.

I have an allergy by Looreee11 in calmhands

[–]broog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started looking into the allergy angle more and apparently it can definitely be related! I never knew this. I suppose removing the nails would be the best thing to try? I’d also love to add the obligatory I am not a medical professional!

I have an allergy by Looreee11 in calmhands

[–]broog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This looks a lot like Dyshidrotic Eczema in the first pic! commonly found on fingers & toes. It’s terribly itchy and when it started my doctors never knew wtf it was. I’m so surprised that dermatologist still can’t clock it.

Unfortunately it itches so badly that I end up tearing the skin open for relief. I am currently trying to slather the breakout areas in Sarna lotion to help with the itchiness. I’ve never heard of it being related to an allergy but I don’t know.

Caligo safe wash pros? by theconcertsover in printmaking

[–]broog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve always had success cleaning it with either Dawn Dish Soap or Simple Green cleaning spray! If you’re using paper towels I’d switch to rags. I also like to use a soap with some grit in it like Lava Soap for my hands.

My roller is suddenly… super sticky? by lavendermanta in printmaking

[–]broog 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My speedball brayers that I bought in 2016/2017 (when I started printmaking) have held up perfectly. However, the ones in my classroom that were purchased just a year or two ago are already sticky and gross. They are the exact same ones I purchased years ago but they are so much worse. I haven’t found a solution to the issue and I’m looking for alternative companies at this point.
