Hey folks, first real post for me here and i thought id start with the obvious, my apprenticeship. lets start with a little background. 29, modestly successful in the IT/computer world for about 10 years, first degree was in fine arts, after a wake up call in the “real world” i stopped graphics and converted to the IT world in search of money! well that almost killed my spirit. So now i’m giving it a real go, and chasing my dreams to do what i have always loved, yada yada, blah blah. Well i started 6 weeks ago in a shop here in Los Angeles. Its more of an old school shop but not in the Americana or street shop terms. Its a custom shop with 2 permanent artists, one of which is the owner and very well known artist in his style. that aside, i wanted to quickly discuss ethics, moral, and what to expect and what to put up with. I am coming at this apprenticeship with a very clear idea. LEARN TO TATTOO AND TAKE IN AS MUCH INFORMATION AS POSSIBLE, PUT UP WITH WHATEVER YOU HAVE TO, BUT ENDURE. So this attitude has got me through some hard shit and also some easy shit, quickly.
Lets get to the meat.
So my teacher is a 30 yr veteran of the industry, and learned from the last ones at the Pike. He also did his first apprenticeship at an H.A shop in SD, and for all intense purposes embodies that quagmire of personality. anyways, there’s the picture, here’s some details of what i’m putting up with….
This apprenticeship is very much the old school one, the one where you constantly get yelled at, do chores outside of the shop (booking flights, packing bags, driving to the airport, painting houses (not yet, but it has been implied), taking care of his animals, food, and everything and anything under the freakin sun) this is all fine and dandy, but now after “going through the hazing period) or what i thought was the end we have reached a new level of losing my self respect. My new tasks, mind you i am an accomplished and successful person who has a family and wife of many yrs. My new task is to make a dunce cap decorated with Disney bullshit. snarf snarf. chuckle chuckle. yeah i get it, but now we are approaching a new level of disrespect. i can put up with a lot of bullshit, grew up on base with a bunch of military shitheads, i get it. yippee! but at some point you have to reflect on the root cause of this hazing, his break you down build you back up part, and also his competency as a businessman or woman. this is the stage i am at, and yeah i’m not at wits end, but i am at a point of standing up and calling bullshit. paid my money, have a written contract (of which doesn’t have jargon for dismissal, only skills learned, and cash amounts). so id love to hear your thoughts on the dunce, on the whole thing, and shit id love to hear some freaking keep your chin up shit too haha. cheers guys thanks for listening.
friend,hold on it.it will be passed.

When you say ‘shade’, I am guessing that you mean a lighter application of color, rather than blending one color into another? If you mean lighter application, I would suggest watering down the colored ink as you would water down black to make greywash :) I find that my color packer acts very much like a shading machine, with very minimal ink insertion on a first pass, and needs going over the area a few times to get the proper saturation, but because the machine hits so softly, it doesn’t chew the skin up in the process :) If you mean you are trying to blend colors, then I would suggest in addition to the fully colored area in the dark ink, do an area a few mm around it at say 50% saturation, then when you use the next color, over lap that color over the 50% area, so the two colors mix in the skin, before then going on to the area of full color. Kind of hard to describe what I’m meaning… For example
2 cm circle of solid red ink
Then have a 5mm ring of 50% red ink (not watered down pigment, but only one or two passes so the area is not fully saturated)
Then have a 15mm ring of yellow ink, starting at the edge of the 2cm circle. That will then make the 5mm ring of red ink become a 5mm ring of orange ink and create a 1cm ring of yellow ink outside of the ‘mixed’ area.Hope that’s of help :)
I learned it from you.Thanks.And this is a tattoo website:www.tattoodiy.com.If you want any tattoo supply ples search on it.we can give you our bargain price for you.
