Julie My Love explained in her Minute by Minute feature why she recently added a new tattoo. Now here’s more about the tattoo itself.
The art she imagined was made up of several flowers, each representing someone of significance in her life. (Being an Asian-loving iconoclastic half-Canadian, I asked to be Japanese Maple leaves.)
She found pictures of the specific flowers online, and I arranged them in Photoshop to create this pre-visualizion.
She used this pre-vis to explain her idea to the artist, Hannah Aitchison, who then sketched out her own interpretation.
The work of translating the image from paper to flesh began…
… and three-and-a-half increasingly painful hours later…
Julie My Love had her new tattoo.
Here it is in detail.
Bringing the creative process three-quarters full-circle, I then coloured in Hannah’s sketch with Photoshop, a sort of post-visualization of her interpretation of my pre-visualization of Julie’s original idea.
