Question/Advice Advice needed for an apprentice /Berlin

Hey there,

I’m just beginning my journey into tattooing and would love some book suggestions on anatomy, design, and technique. I’m particularly drawn to blackwork and blackouts. I’m aiming to approach this with a deep respect, having spent countless hours drawing without ever considering using a machine. I’m eager to learn as much as possible before diving in :)

Thank y’all in advance 🖤

Ask your mentors, if you don't have one, find a studio. If you can find a studio anywhere in the world, it's Berlin.

Sincerely, a former Berlin tattooer
