Patience is wearing thin these days.

This is a legitimate conversation I’m currently having.

A. Hey, I’d like to get my calf tattooed!

B. Awesome thank you for reaching out, I’d love to. What do you want to get done?

A. Idk, you’re the artist.

B. …well there’s many styles out there, not sure exactly what you want.

Am I fucking dumb? What’s going on here. Ideas, references? Anything at all that I can look at so I can create something? For context, My page is not style specific , I’m a walk in artist so my page has many different styles, Fineline, bold trad, lettering. So it’s not like this client saw my page and knew exactly what style I’m based off of to say “hey create something”.

Update: Design ended up to be a Corinthians bible verse on their thigh, about 6 inches across and 4 inches height. Asked for 100 deposit. Left on read. Thank you, this concludes my Ted talk.
