from: Be The Fan Of A Lifetime With Celebrity Tattoos
Although many celebrities are well-known for having tattoos, tattoos are now being known as looking like celebrities. Marilyn Monroe, James Dean and Martin Luther King, Jr. have been popular celebrity tattoos since the 1960’s. Today, you can order a tattoo of any celebrity you wish. Just be really, really certain you want Billy Bob Thornton looking out to the world through your left arm for the rest of your life.
How Do They Do It?
Tattoo artists are exactly that – artists. Whatever you imagine, they will do their best to make that image a reality that you can take with your everywhere. They just use ink, needles and human skin for their art materials rather than paint or canvas. The method of getting a complicated dragon eating baked beans design around your belly button is the same as for getting a heart that says “MOTHER” or for getting celebrity tattoos. First, the artist needs a stencil of your design. In the case of celebrity tattoos, they need a good black and white portrait in order to make a clear outline (or “stencil”) of the design on your flesh in black ink. Then, through separate visits, colors are added as needed.
But I Worship An Obscure British Rock Star
This writer has been a knocked out fan of obscure British rock star Peter Gabriel for over twenty-five years. I did not think celebrity tattoos could be done of, well, C-list celebrities. They certainly can. Displayed proudly on tattoo artist Tom Renshaw’s website is a portrait of Peter Gabriel placed on a lucky fan’s limb.
So, the question remains – will this writer get a Peter Gabriel tattoo? Well, I can’t tolerate pain, so probably not. Ask me again if he should happen to die before I do. But if I were to develop nerves of steel, I would research all about the tattoo parlors in my area that I could, whether on line, through word of mouth, or in tattoo trade magazines, including Tattoo Artist Magazine. Picking an artist to put my beloved’s face on my hoo-ha would involve the same care as picking a portrait oil or watercolor portraitist. Then, I would visit the parlor and check out to see if it looks clean. I would be sure the tattoo artist is familiar with doing men’s portraits. I could even ask to see photos of his or her previous work of celebrity tattoos on other customers. If I like the artist’s style, I would get the Peter Gabriel permanent tattoo and bring a bullet to bite on.
