"Hi, my name is Shotsie Gorman. I'm here as a tattoo artist, a professional tattoo artist for Expert Village. Okay? Yeah. Well, generally speaking, it's really dependant on the size ot the tattoo and the number of hours that one would have to spend with the tattooing actually happening. Some people can sit comfortably for four or five hours, and some people hit their limit at two. A tattoo of this size generally would be done comfortably in two sittings. But Luke is here for a short period of time, and we're going to try to get as much done as we can. Again, it depends on his comfort zone. The benefit to doing it twice is certainly less stress in the process, and also where it heals, there are times where it heals that you get a little variation in the healing. You might have lines that are not as soft as you would want them to be, or color which is not as intact as you would hope. And you get that opportunity to go back and address those. But alot of it has to do with circumstances. Also I have to say here that I've been tattooing for twenty-eight years, so my technique generally speaking is probably three or four times faster than the average tattoo artist. I move very quickly for a tattoo artist. Which puts less stress on the client as well. "
