THE PROCESS

Sara Fabel works in collaboration with her booking manager Emma when answering emails and organizing future clients and appointments.  Filling in the contact form both Sara and Emma will have a better understanding of your vision regarding your future tattoo. More information you are able to provide, easier it is to correctly pinpoint time and cost for the tattoo. 

Once booking manager Emma has all the information needed in order to do estimations, she will forward your request to Sara. From here Sara will get back to the you with design advice, ideas and confirmed price estimate. Once there is consensus on the final design, pricing and timing, you will be provided with a deposit form to secure an appointment date.

In person consultations can be made via special request, but email is preferred as this keeps a written history of design ideas and potential changes.

THE DESIGN

It is important to choose an artists that sense of design is style is corresponding to the end all result you are looking for. Giving ideas and elements for the tattoo artist to use is always welcome, as well as inspiration pictures. Sara loves to give design advice and send example mockups to illustrate her ideas for your tattoo. Both Saras and Emmas goal is to make booking and receiving a tattoo as easy and fun process as possible.

CUSTOM vs PORTFOLIO vs PREDRAWN

-CUSTOM pieces are work that Sara draws on the basis of clients specific requests. Prior to booking you are welcome to send Sara reference pictures of her existing work as well as inspirational photographs and designs. From these Sara will gather ideas to propose for the tattoos, which often includes a rough sketch or placeholder image to communicate shape and flow. After booking you are able to request a half way sketch 2 weeks prior to your appointment. Sara does not send fully finished designs prior to the appointment date.

-PORTFOLIO designs give artistic freedom to Sara based on VERY general 3 likes and 3 dislikes. For example: likes; flowers, animals, feminine / dislike; horror, humans, heavy black. This is to get an idea of the clients personality and style to fit a unique design for their needs. From here Sara will take these elements (sometimes just one, sometimes all of them) and work with them as guidance. Additionally, she may use the elements or something similar to listed elements. For these designs there is no redrawing of the design as it is a portfolio piece. There are no mock ups or sketches exchanged between clients and Sara prior to tattoo day. 

-PREDRAWN designs are remade drawings. You are able to see designs at predawns and on Saras instagram page.

 

Why are PORTFOLIO and PREDRAWN pieces cheaper? 

Portfolio pieces give the freedom of design to the artist and require the client to trust the artist more. This is a design that gives Sara freedom to express her artistic side.
