@lake How do artists feel about doing this kind of "simple" black line work?
There's some simple black line stuff that I've been thinking about, but I think about proposing it to an artist my gut feel is that they'd find it boring and uninteresting.
@jbowen it totally depends!
I personally loved doing this tattoo- there was nothing boring about it for me at all, it felt just as engaging as a more illustrative design.
I think some might shy away from doing designs like this because doing all the long, straight lines is pretty challenging… i just like going hard mode on everything…
i would look for an artist that already has more abstract designs in their portfolio already and go from there!
