my 1st tattoo was on piece of paper from something I had seen and I made some minor alterations- big mistake! .... my second was done by a true artist (Donut!) and was so much more professional- and personal.... when a artist has the rein to be creative you get your input but their professionalism and skill and experience that a non artistic person such as myself would not see... all the aesthetics so to speak... believe me its well worth taking the time to get it professionally designed
