Calligraphy Tattoo Designs

Thank you for your interest in my work. Since most of the designs I create are based on my calligraphy expertise, I suggest you look over the various calligraphy design portfolios to see my work and get some ideas.

How to Order | Submit your order

If you are wanting a word or short phrase in any script or language developed into a calligraphy tattoo design, please fill out my CONTACT FORM. You will hear back from me within 24 – 48 hours. I offer this procedure to make the process quick, easy and affordable, while making sure you get something you really like. I have used this system for many years and found that it works very well.

Note: Technology is not perfect. If you do not hear back from me within 48 hours, please email me directly at palmstone@gmail.com.

The design process:

Let me know what you are looking for (by filling out the form above):

1. Language and/or script
2. Do you need translation done
3. Size or dimension of the actual tattoo
4. Do you need colour in your design?
5. Examples of designs you like — from my website or from elsewhere

I will contact you to work out the exact details of your design request, pricing, timeline, etc.

What you receive:

• 7 or more design variations in black and white delivered via email. If you need colour I typically work on that after the design is approved.
• If you need minor edits or changes to the one design you like best, that is also included.
• All designs are delivered via high-resolution PDF or JPEG files.
• Please note: As part of my design process I create a large number of variations and send the best of those to you.  It is not cheaper to ask for fewer designs!

My fee for this service:

1. My minimum fee for this service is typically USD $295.00. For simple jobs I am sometimes able to offer a discount.
2. Translation service is often included in this price, but I will let you know in advance if an additional charge is required.
3. Pricing depends upon the nature of the work being requested. I will provide you with an exact price quote before beginning any work.

Payment methods:

• I invoice via PayPal
• You do not have to have a PayPal account to pay by credit or debit card
• Personal Checks off of any US-based bank
• Money Orders, preferably via Western Union
