Hi, I'm interested in the Tribal Butterfly design that's on the site.
http://www.tattoonow.com/Tattoo-Designs/Butterfly/item483.html
I want to get it for my lower back, but the product description doesn't say which part(s) of the body it's meant for. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Hey there,
the tribal butterfly tattoo design you refer to will fit your lower back nicely. Make sure you find a good custom tattoo artist to fit the design, and embellish it, to suit your needs. Where abouts do you live? I can probably recommend a good tattoo studio near you...
Thanks a lot, Gabe. I was hoping that I could get it there; it's the perfect spot for me.
If you don't mind my asking, is it also possible for the butterfly to be placed a bit further up the back, maybe around the waist area of the spine? Because when I get the tattoo done I don't want it to be covered by jeans. I mean if I were to wear a half-shirt or halter top with jeans in the summer, let's say, I want the butterfly to appear in all its glory.
I'm currently living overseas, so I don't know if you can give me any suggestions in that area. Unless you know any Greek tattoo artists/shops? ;o)
Okay, since I'm too far away to get anybody from TattooNOW's professional list of artists, I've been checking around online to find one here (and also about the art of tattooing in general, since this will be my first tattoo).
So now I think I've found my guy. His name is Luca, he has a degree from the University of Fine Arts in Florence, Italy and he's been working as a tattoo artist for around 10 years, and has had his own shop in Athens for 5.
Here are some of his flash design samples, and some finished tattoo pics. Please let me know what you think.

Something else: When I order the Butterfly design (soon), can I have the PDF file sent to me through email, like that guy who wanted the Blue Dragon did?
Yes, I think Luca could rock out the butterfly. I didnt see too many color tattoos on his website, but his black and grey looks solid to me. Yes, I can send you a pdf of the butterfly, but i would have Luca adapt it to your body. Make the tribal flow with the part of your back you will put the tattoo perfectly. Tell him to get ahold of us, Id love to sell his flash and represent his work!
Let us know how it goes!
