I get a lot of requests from individuals outside my usual stomping grounds inquiring if I do design work only, if someone else is to do the tattoo. The answer is no, but Michael Lothian, an artist in Australia does via e-mail for a reasonable fee. You can see some of his work at: http://www.poto-originalz.com just keep clicking on the images.
