Well,time ago I emailed Chris O'Donnell at King's Ave NY about a project. Even though based on his website he really doesn't take on many new random projects and I didn't expect to hear back I emailed him. Anyway, I didn't hear back so instead I am in the process of completing a half sleeve and then today I get an email from Chris O'Donnell saying he wants to do my project. Ugh...I can imagine it won't be cheap but how do I turn him down? I remember this similar situation happening to other people here. I might try to at least delay it until sometime next year but I don't want to lose the opportunity either. Damn.

Definitely jump on the opportunity! I know it's easier said than done, but like you said maybe you can ask him if he can start on you next year? I'm sure he has more than enough clients to keep him busy until then.

Just explain your getting other work now but would love to get a piece by him when the funds come.

We actually exchanged a couple of emails today, he's surprisingly quick to reply. But yea he's cool and said he wasn't looking to start yet anyway, but he liked my tattoo idea so he wanted to get the ball rolling to book for sometime in 2016 before he gets too full. So we're still hashing out the details but this has serious potential for next year, I've got no problem waiting that long to get a chance to get tattooed by Chris O'Donnell at King's Ave.

Looks like we'll be confirming a date in 2016 so this is a go! It should be pretty cool getting a snake, etc. from someone like O'Donnell. Time to start saving the money.
