Typography meets the skin

As I was previously pursuing my degree as a Graphic Designer, I am still greatly influenced by it in all aspects of my work. While working as a Tattoo Artist I am in way governed by the strict do's and do not's of typeography that most graphic designers adhere to, as most clients want their type stacked and wtitten in Old English :P Tattoo art has a more aesthetic and personal connection with the client, and often times they can not be swayed any differently on their choice of design. However, on occasion I am given more artist freedom, which always yields a more visually appealing tattoo governed by the elements of design. I always design my type heavy tattoos using Adobe Illustrator, which I feel is the best utility for typographical art :)
