I went tattoo artist shopping and chose an artist that I thought had many artful examples of his work. He told me he had ADD(attention deficit ) and was slow and meticulious at what he does. I certainly didn't want anyone rushing through their work on me. He is a germophobe, and constantly cleaned things, covered instruments with sterile plastic and used new tattoo needles each time he changed colors.

Earlier, I had left him some photos of the flying eagle from four or five different coins and with different colors. He made a tracing first and when I rerturned he adjusted it as I liked. I wanted it on my left upper arm with the eagle beak pointing out.
