What You Can Expect From the Process of Sacred Tattoo Designing With Tania Marie,
From the Artist Herself:
Tania Marie: “I want to share a recurring theme that comes
up in my sacred tattoo design consultations and creations so that others
realize that this is not a simple tell me what you want, I draw it process. This
process of sacred tattoo designing is a very intense, intimate and involved
journey that we share. It is like receiving a consolidated coaching session
compressed in the now, but spanning perhaps years, a lifetime or lifetimes of
focuses for you, all done energetically through symbolism specific to your
needs and in support of the healing journey you are on. These sacred tattoo
designs help alter your DNA code to match with its vibration. Many times these
designs are steps ahead of where you are, but they hold the space for you to
grow and move into, and will support you through your walk of life. For me,
it's like doing shaman healing and intuitive work when I create a supportive
piece - a whole journey of integrative healing, as there is much to process and
embrace. It is as potently intense for me, as it is for my clients. It is an
honor to be able to do this sacred work that is my passion.
I launched my book, “Spiritual Skin,” which had been nudging
me for a few years, as I wanted to help others to understand this sacred
process and how tattoos were much more than meets the eye.
The design process, including consulting, is $125/hour. I
only charge for the actual design time, meaning pencil to paper time. The
consulting (usually done through extensive emails), research, meditation, and
any extra goodies I add to the process are not part of the hourly. These are
just the gifts I add to the very intensive journey. The process of designing is
a very intricate, deep, sacred, detailed, time and committed dedication that I
take seriously and put my heart and soul into to ensure the right energy and
detail that reflects your own heart. Sometimes I am creating out of thin air if
a client doesn’t know exactly what they want, and only shares essence
qualities, so I then need to figure out how that translates. This sometimes
comes exactly right the first time and other times, it comes in stages, as it
depends on how clear the energy is that is being channeled. Sometimes it takes
time to go deeper and access that pearl that is hidden. It is quite the
spiritual process and the more we unravel and dig deeper, the more I uncover
the truth below the surface and get through the layers.
Usually tattoos run 1-4 hours to design, from my experience.
Intricacy, detail and size will be the deciding factors. Whenever dealing with
symmetry it can be a bit more complex and timely as well, so this all is taken
into account when estimating time frames. I can usually give close
guesstimates, but they can run shorter or a little longer. It is most important
we get it right than to rush a process, however, I am mindful of people’s
budgets and will work with what you can afford, staying within a timeframe you
need, as well as can offer payment plans if necessary.
I require a one hour deposit upfront, as all tattoos take at
least one hour, and the balance, due upon our agreement of its closure.
Consulting back and forth is no extra charge, nor is the meditating time I do
to tune in and receive. I clock my work from start to finish. After we agree, I
will begin the design and then once done, email the scanned design to you to
see what you feel. Many times we get it the first time, but it is not unusual
to have a couple tweaks and goes at it. It’s important to get things just
right. I don’t charge for a couple of minutes of changes, but if it is more
involved than a few minutes of change, or constitutes a redo, then I charge the
same rate and of course if it’s partial hour, I charge accordingly as that
equates from the normal hourly rate.
The design is done in black and white, meaning pencil, as it
is up to your tattoo artist and you to incorporate colors you may desire. This
is just the design template that they will use to copy and place on the
transfer sheet to your skin, of which they can easily up and down the size on their
copy machine if you end up wanting it sized differently.
The whole process is a magical one and I’m constantly amazed
at how synchronously and divinely it always unfolds. It’s like being a catalyst
or channel to help bring forth the visions my clients have in manifested form
and in so doing, creating magical gateways or portals in a sort of alchemical
process.
I am grateful for the opportunity to assist you with your
own 'spiritual skin' and welcome any inquiries you may have.”
