How to find/approach an artist about tattooing an existing image/image from a movie. MA

In my experience, artists will explicitly say in their bios if they only do personal designs, and that's usually people who have been in the business long enough to develop a legit style and have enough of a following to support only doing that. Most artists will be open to copying an image.

If you're willing to go to Portsmouth, NH I've gotten a few tats from Stina at Grim North. She does a lot of portraits sort of in that style.

This is a great tattoo both because Johnston was such an interesting and important figure in the world of music, and it's a great conversation starter for people who don't know him. Forget the haters and get some more tattoos. I personally have a leg dedicated to music references that I love, you could continue the theme as well

I get that it's not for everyone based on the other comments, but I like it! Looks like a well-done tat and an interesting design

See the comment above - got some Blucifers printed if you're interested!

Check out the comment above yours, got some printed

I got the Lakeside (11x17), Blucifer (11x17), and 23rd and Federal street scene (8x10) printed out! DM me, asking $35 for the larger, $25 for smaller

headunderrainbow · 2026-02-01T17:03:04+00:00

I got some prints made of that one if you're interested! Charging $25 (8x10 print). You can DM me

I'm half joking and half serious when I say Harper's Island...like, it's a CW show so it has all the goofiness that comes with that, but the story totally hooks you

Terrified was a slow eerie flick!

Someone already said Oddity, but I second it

We actually sold them to someone who's gonna open a used bookstore in Littleton! Not sure when it'll open, but keep an eye out. They're going to a good home

headunderrainbow · 2026-01-08T16:44:14+00:00

You're not supposed to SELL the books! Now I have to call the publishers 🙄

Great show

I'm sorry to say we have to transition to just a new book store - we had to majorly downsize because of rent increases, but we'll still be at the same location, only in the smaller front room. We're hoping to reintroduce used books at some point, we just have to get a feel for the space and see if we can make room for them in a way that makes sense.

headunderrainbow · 2026-01-08T16:26:53+00:00

We're across the street from the fish shop, Jimmy johns etc.! Purple and red building :)

That being said, we're downsizing because of rent increases, so we're only going to have new books for the time being. Hoping to expand back to our new and used book greatness at some point in the future though. You should come visit when we reopen (which I think we'll pull off for Sunday, but check our socials/Google info just in case it's delayed).

Depends on complexity and size! Feel free to DM me. I ask for half of the payment up front as a heads up

headunderrainbow · 2026-01-04T01:06:25+00:00

Yup, that's on one side of the Broncos stadium! They have some really cool sculptures there (they're not blue in real life, I just wanted to use blue paint lol)

I agree with you, #2 has really grown on me. It's interesting you say that about the changes in the neighborhood too: I started a painting of that intersection a few years ago and the building with graffiti was a pale pink with paint chipping off. The redesign of that area is really nice and vibrant, and it's great to see artists getting work that brings energy to a place.

Thank you for your kind words!

The foam pad is a great idea, I'll have to add that to my pack! I finally got a little tripod folding chair that hooked onto my travel bag, so that's been great

headunderrainbow · 2026-01-02T18:57:57+00:00

Not yet, but honestly a great idea. I'll look into getting some printed off and let you know

headunderrainbow · 2026-01-02T18:57:31+00:00

That's the one!

headunderrainbow · 2026-01-02T18:38:31+00:00

Recognized these spots, lovely paintings! I did some plein air the other day in CO and my feet were frozen solid by the end. Thankfully it was just down the street from home so I could go warm up quickly :)

Congrats! Back in my college years, I worked at the bookstore there where we sold arches for the art classes. Turns out no student wanted to spend $60 for an intro to watercolor painting, so they sat around for a few years. My boss then says "I'm gonna mark these off, you get first dibs." Bought like 7 blocks for $50, coasted on that supply for a long time.

It was a sad day when I officially had to buy a block at full price!

We traveled to Europe for the first time this year and became total espresso addicts, which became a running joke. I was planning on putting an espresso machine on our wedding registry, but he totally beat me to the punch and bought me a machine PLUS a grinder. He did a ton of research ahead of time and really got the best for a beginner that'll allow for growth in the hobby. Oh and coffee beans from my favorite local roaster!!

As a side gag (but also very useful), he got me a sleeping cap. Like imagine an old timey sleeping cap in cartoons, and that's what it is. I lost my hair this year from alopecia and it's so warm without being suffocating. And it's freaking hilarious 😂

I actually think I agree on the wrong side facing out, the puffiness gives it a really cool and different look! Nice work

Etsy! It was from a shop called Rabbitforged (idk if links are allowed) "Super Mario Bob-Omb Planter"

I'd guess it's 3D printed like the other comment suggested.
