@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!

That was my guess and why I put "simple" in quotes :)
And thank you for sharing your thoughts and work!
