Sleeve tattoos and back pieces in Hobart.
A sleeve is a project, not an appointment. Bruno designs the whole thing up front so it flows from shoulder to wrist, then builds it session by session. Already have tattoos on that arm? They can usually be worked in or covered.

Questions
How long does a full sleeve take?
Several sessions over a number of months, depending on detail, size and how you heal. Bruno will give you a realistic estimate at your planning chat.
Can you add to tattoos I already have?
Usually, yes. Bruno will plan the sleeve around them, connect them with background work, or cover them.
Can I start with a half sleeve and finish later?
Yes. Tell Bruno at the start and he'll design it to extend.
