I'm looking for someone with decent enough skills to design me a tattoo.

Basically I want something like the following two pictures;

http://canucks13.deviantart.com/art/Carpe-Diem-rough-40819524

http://stammo.deviantart.com/art/Carpe-Diem-Tattoo-Design-122203355

The tattoo will be going inside my right bicep. I would like the design to sort of trail off towards my forearm and have the "carpe diem" quote blended in but not as much as in the first pic. I don't want the writing to be the main focus but easily distinguishable.
I like the flowing vine sort of design but want it to be a little more masculine then flowers.

You can contact me via email on themoose@gmail.com
Can anyone lend a hand?

Isn't tattoo design what the tattoo artist gets paid to do?

In many cases, no. If you do that, you're reliant on what lies inside of the tattoo artist's imagination, but that often isn't what you want. It's not uncommon for people to bring artwork to a tattoo artist and tell them that this is what they would like.

Thanks,

Patrick

A point well taken, plus it's not like than can erase it if you don't like it.
