Potter, tattoo artist
It’s all Science Magic to me. I am continuously thrilled that the world is filled with people who are much smarter and more curious than I am.
I’ll sleep a little better knowing the quiet strip flickering under my aquarium isn’t a ticking time-bomb though.
We have a VR system set up in our living room. I don’t even want to talk about how long it took me to figure out the receivers were making a steady, high pitched noise. There are 4 of them and they are situated near the ceiling.
I hear it from a lot of things when it’s quiet enough. Clock radios, tvs, monitors, my pugmill, heaters. There was a noisy power strip with a flashing one-off switch that I’m still convinced was going to kill someone.
I DON’T know anything about electricity - so mostly it makes me anxious that my house is going to burn down. I have bad enough hearing loss that I have to use closed captions on my TV - but it IS mostly because deep voices are extremely muddled. I’m surprised a bit by how many “not really” answers I see.
I guess I’m confused. No, the computer didn’t trace anything. I traced the general outline of some flowers to create a rough draft before drawing the stencil for this tattoo.
It’s just a drawing program, not an AI program.
The drawing program (Procreate) automatically screen records my drawing as I work on it.
Good eye! I appreciate the feedback!
Giving my clients what they want is very important to my work. Grandma was quite the avid crocheter, but the artwork I drew up using the center… Stitched(?) Crochet work had a rather unfortunate resemblance to a butthole. Tattoos are permanent and memorial tattoos are very personal - it’s more important to make them attractive and meaningful than factually correct. I would hate to have someone mention something like “hey that looks like a butthole!” thinking they were being funny and cause a client to feel embarrassed or upset about their work. It is hurtful to both their self image and their memories of the person they got the tattoo for.
I leave mine unplugged. It would be nice if they would turn off.
