~ Questions & Answers ~
Where are you located?
According to google maps: Portland, Oregon. I work from a licensed private studio in industrial SE.
What are your rates?
My rates are based on $150 an hour. Once the size, placement, concept, and appointment date of your tattoo have been mutually confirmed, I will not charge you more than the maximum budget you’ve disclosed to me & we've agreed on, even if your tattoo takes more time than anticipated. Deviation from the specifics of our agreement are subject to a price change, which will be discussed before the tattoo appointment. Our shop minimum is $150.
Do you require a deposit?
Yep, a non-refundable deposit of $100 dollars will be required before your appointment is confirmed, and will go toward the total cost of your completed tattoo.
Do custom pieces cost the same as “flash”?
The short answer is yes, I don’t charge more or less for a pre-drawn piece vs a custom! However, some pre-drawn pieces will have clearly stated non-negotiable dimensions, location options and prices. Just like a custom piece, placement and size adjustment of pre-drawn pieces will affect the price, which needs to be discussed via email before your appointment.
Do you repeat pre-drawn “flash”?
Most my current/newer flash is available to be repeated a handful of times. If your heart is set on an older non-repeatable pre-drawn piece (thats been tattooed) I'm happy to draw you something similar but slightly altered so it’s unique to you!
Are you down to split a large tattoo piece into a few sessions?
For sure! Its easier on my body and on yours. For some large scale pieces I’ll propose this initially, but if you’re interested in doing so just lemme know in our email correspondence.
Do you send pictures of custom tattoo designs before the appointment?
Nope!
Color tattoos?
No thanks!
Cover-ups?
Rarely, but on a case-by-case basis. My style isn’t ideal for every type of cover up. It depends on whats being covered and your expectations of the final result. To me the most important aspect of embarking on a cover up is making sure we don’t take the tattoo you’re not stoked on and “cover” it with a bigger tattoo you’re not stoked on.
Do you tattoo art that is not your original art?
Ok ok, I’ve been known to bust out some pretty sweet King of the Hill/ Adult Swim related tattoos & I love nerd’n out over cartoons that we can share a mutual love over. Other than that I’m not interested in replicating another artists work (especially another illustrator/tattoo artists work or style).
Do you make/sell art that isn’t in the form of a tattoo?
Hell yes! Availability will vary. You can check out my multi-media art that’s currently for sale in my shop.
But you didn’t answer my question!
No sweat, shoot me an email to prudence.tattoos@gmail.com and I’ll do my best to provide some clarity!
