Day in the Life of a Tattoo Apprentice
Instagram: @miggon__
A typical day as an artist ^^ It's my 3rd month at the studio and my mentor is pretty chill about what I do in the studio as long as I'm being productive, which is really cool, and since each artist takes care of their own space I have a lot of time to create pieces, so I do try to use that time wisely ;D
First attempt at making an art/studio vlog so let me know what you think and that I can improve 👴
If you have any questions leave them in the comments aaaand I hope you enjoyed the video and wish you the best of luck on your own adventure! 😤💪

A tour through the portfolio that I've been building up since university ;) Some notes: I mentioned apprenticeship in Portugal are reaaalllyy rare, but after visiting a few more I am realising they are not that rare.

The damage and trauma youcan cause skin is way2 much for me2 fukaroundwith n find out. As an apprentice you really should ONLY TATTOO human flesh under supervision of a professional. ....for very literally EVERYREASON.

    Thank you for making this video! I appreciate all of the things you explained and you really are a fast learner when you showed us the difference between the different parts you shaded on the snake. That's awesome. One thing I feel that no one talks about though is how to sustain a living while getting an apprenticeship. How could I go to the shop every day unpaid, while working another job to be able to feed myself and pay for rent? Or would they accommodate it? It just overwhelms me thinking about it and I get demotivated. :/

    Guys keep working and don’t get discouraged! I recently had a tattoo artist tell me if you get to 30 it’s too late because you’ll go blind from old age before you get good. People will tell you all kinds of ridiculous things like this to discourage you! Dont listen, it is possible!

    • @Miggon_
      @Miggon_ Год назад

      Yes it was mostly made on procreate! ^^ my views have changed on the whole tattoo industry, but anyone who tells you that just has a stick up their butt and wants to stop you from tattooing. If you can draw digitally, you can draw on paper or skin just the same, don't listen to those people and keep going! 😎
