What does it take to be a tattoo artist?

1. Tattooing, as a commercial activity, the first condition for becoming a tattoo artist is the love of painting, and this love is transformed into a certain shaping ability. To have the ability to shape, you must have a certain painting foundation and a certain creative thinking. The basic skills of painting can be cultivated, but the lack of creative ideas needs self-supplementation and continuous learning and appreciation. \x0d\2。 Self-appreciation needs constant exploration and creation, and it needs to constantly encounter thorny problems. Through Ming Rui's judgment on painting and tattoo art, we need different eyes and observation skills; Understand the development of tattoo industry and the characteristics of various styles of tattoo art; Understanding of art and fashion; The understanding of painting skills and methods requires some cultivation. Don't imitate the works of famous teachers too much in creation. Imitation is undoubtedly the worship and admiration for other people's tattoo works, but without its own artistic style, it is futile and can only live under other people's artistic style. \x0d\3。 You need a certain ideological realm and personal artistic style skills to create a tattoo that everyone expects and no one tries. Diligence is the most precious wealth in life. If you work or study with passion every day, you will certainly surpass your peers in these aspects. How to set the orientation of your future development and the constraints and requirements for yourself need to be explored constantly in your tattoo career. \x0d\4。 Being an individual is very important. You can express your tattoo skills and skills through certain paintings. If you don't have certain personal recommendation and introduction ability, you can't communicate effectively with others, and it's hard to get help from others. This will only get twice the result with half the effort, so you need to cultivate your personal character and feelings. \x0d\5。 We should receive all kinds of guests every day and do not rule out meeting people we don't like. In this respect, you need to communicate calmly, and you need to change and suggest their tattoo creativity without hurting the enthusiasm of the guests. I need certain principles, which will give me a certain prestige among these social people, not a weak scholar in the eyes of others. I need to recognize some identities, be very decisive in conversation, dare to deny what I can't do right away, and expect sincerity. \x0d\5。 Even in a certain environment, although the relationship is complicated, you need to learn to reject secular ideas and stay away from those things that are cliques. There is no need to join this association or that association. What matters is what you think of this development. You should try to set up an association or exchange group instead of joining a position designed by others to make it look like a gang. My interest in art is also related to my personal energy. I need to give up some trivial things and hobbies and spend all my time on painting and tattooing. After a long time, my way of thinking about tattoos will become more and more rigorous. I will try a variety of artistic expressions and make a profound study and discussion on these techniques. \x0d\6。 Refuse to blindly follow the trend, think and learn those popular tattoos, turn those ideas into your own, and then create, process and promote them. Don't publish your own artistic discussions in meaningless forums, let alone agree with the discussions in those forums. You need to have an independent opinion, don't say it easily, and you need to look at one thing dialectically. \x0d\7。 Always pay attention to the development trends and tattoo information on the Internet. You need to know and learn about art constantly. This kind of learning is not to show off, but to improve your understanding of these things and your personal creative ability. Don't be a tattoo artist, just make money by tattooing. You can browse and understand the knowledge of literature in your spare time, and you can have a certain ideological realm through certain accumulation. Face up to those criticisms on the internet, and don't care deliberately. Maybe those suggestions and criticisms are the power of progress. No one's work is perfect, but to be perfect, you need to be careful, patient and calm at work. Only in this way can you create excellent tattoo works, get everyone's recognition and become an excellent tattoo artist.
