DO NOT YOU WANT TO FORGET?
DO YOU WANT TO CONTINUE DREAMING?
ARE YOU TIRED OF “EASY” TATTOOS?
lady sara
I'm looking for lines and feelings to transform them in eternal moments
but I can’t find the boundary between lines and words so I draw the stories and tell the drawings
my name is Sara
and I’m an Italian tattoo artist, most of the time, but I’d like to put my hands wherever I could get them dirty
I was born in a bookstore, reading stories and drawing them and so, I became a serial designer of story
My approach to tattoos is based on listening to my customer, what they want to share with me… a story, a meaning, a memory, a feeling…
. Everything begin from that.
From a past memory that I represent now in the present; a moment that will be forever on my customer in the future.
Tatouage avant-garde d'élite means:
means for me creating lines and feelings for eternal moments.
Avant-garde because it breaks the rules and focus on different styles, mixing them, also when theoretically it shouldn’t work or when nobody trust this.
Often, avant-garde represent itself in stronger styles, naked and pessimists ones, but not me This is why I used before the word “élite”.
Elite because It’s not a style that everyone likes, but only the persons that have something to tell or share, someone who cares on details, who love poetries and aim to happiness, can like this style.
I don't prepare drafts in advance:
it all starts with a story, a tale, a memory, a feeling … with what you’d like to start to tell me.
And so I start to dreaming like I’m reading a book and I imagine the scenes that you tell me and then I’ll explain it to you.
WHY GETTING A TATTOO?!?! I think it’s so an important theme to write a whole post about it ^_^ READ IT
. I don’t prepare drafts in advance .
I’d like to draw everything together with the customer, because I think that the tattoo should be as far as yours and mine and I want to share the structure of the project.
So the day of the appointment I’ll arrive with my luggage package of images and symbols.
I’ll arrive with all those meanings and that details that you have not told me, but I’ve discovered.
and together we decide what is good for us, what does not, and we create the basis for drawing together until all the details are hypothesized (colors, techniques, subjects) and there begins the tattoo
IN THE NORMAL DAILY LIFE
I always mess my mind with passions and when I go to restaurants I order everything, a bit of everything, but I want to taste everything … that’s why I love going to dinner with other people, so I can share the dishes and taste more ^ _ ^
S O I N T H E A R T
I cannot choose and I would like to know everything, I would like to throw myself on everything and experiment with as many techniques and materials as possible
therefore
I subscribe to every course I can reach and I spend nights, Sundays, free days playing a bit, with different games in rotation; pencil and charcoal drawing – watercolor – pastels – acrylic or oil painting, on canvas or on walls or furniture … murals with spry cans, calligraphies with a thousand nibs and supports, photography
and the more you have the more you say, everything is fine or me
A N D T H E N T H E R E I S
writing and reading and studying and cooking and food and eating and inventing and organizing and traveling…
I could absolutely declare that I have a life invaded and messed up between passions, but these are the things that make me live, that make me get up in the morning and sleep in the evening with my head inside a book, happy and curious like a baby with the new game
I’m not perfect, but I’m different
if you are looking for an anti-conventional approach to tattooing you are in the right place,
here the experience of life is put at the first place
I draw through the psychology of the image to follow your instinct; because if you are attracted to an image there is a reason and I probably know what it is …
Do you want to know it too? Ok, but sometimes I also find things you wouldn’t want to find … this can be difficult to understand, so I wrote this
Vegan
all the materials that I use for work are chosen to get a more natural tattoo experience, better accepted from the body; they DO NOT contain animal derivation ingredients and follow a #crueltyfree ethic so they are NOT tested on animals > they are also NICKEL FREE
Eco Friendly
the architecture of the building and the entire working cycle, from the choice of materials to the disposal of waste, is based on the circular ethics of eco-sustainability, thus reducing the environmental impact of the tattoo. A portion of my revenues is invested in improving this project
Benefit
#TATTOOBENEFIT is my INITIATIVE TO HELP someone to make this strange world a little bit better; it is my fundraising initiative born in 2012 that continues under various forms to donate to socially useful charity campaigns that respect my #vegan & #ecofriendly lifestyle.
A TATTOO WITH ME
it’s not the experience you usually think of when you go to get a tattoo
. IT’S A GLOBAL EXPERIENCE .
what does it mean? let’s see…
✔︎ a day of relaxation exclusively for you, on vacation from the world and hidden from society where there is only you and your path, without distractions > this is possible thanks to the isolated location of my tattoo studio and the compartmentalized organization of the days of tattoos divided by administration days
✔︎ no drawing in advance > I cannot draw your story without knowing you, so it is impossible for me to prepare a drawing by exchanging a few emails or phone calls … on the day of the appointment we will know each other and, through my collaborative drawing method, we will carefully choose the subjects and all the details of the tattoo
✔︎ no drawing? NO PROBLEM! obviously I will take care of this; I’ll take care of addressing you even when you don’t have the slightest idea yet, I just need a story to tell …
✔︎ drawing through the psychology of the image > sing the study of your history and intrinsic emotions, combined with the study of the symbolism of images and the emotions hidden in them. There is always a reason if you are instinctively attracted to an image, and I probably know what it is. Do you want to know it? Ok, but sometimes I also find hidden things … this is a difficult point to understand and I have described a practical example in this FREE DOWNLOAD
✔︎ no copy & paste > the tattoo is designed together with the customer and for the customer, therefore OBVIOUSLY it will never be reproduced on any other; because it’s your story and nobody else can wear it
✔︎ post tattoo assistance and final GIFT BOX > a gift pack with useful and trivial things, but also everything you need for a careful healing of the tattoo > CLICK HERE to read the guide I wrote with all the indications for a simple POST TATTOO
!!! here is what YOU WILL NOT FIND from me !!!
# a commercial tattoo, maybe already seen somewhere or on someone else
# a cold and detached experience, sterile of feelings > will not be a “you arrive, enter, I tattoo you, pay and go, bye bye”
# you won’t find the stereotype tattoo artist in the stereotype tattoo studio > the big guy all tattooed, dressed in black and with a cigarette in his mouth, tattooing everything in silence, without speaking, in a studio with white walls, the windows darkened and some skulls here and there
# drawing ready, done at home alone with no trouble > “take, choose and go …”
WARNING: it is not wrong to get a tattoo like this!
absolutely indeed, even I am full of tattoos so on my body …. but I don’t work like this
who are NOT suitable for this approach to tattooing
I’m a tattoo artist, but I’m not suitable for everyone.
I am suitable for those who want to talk about themselves, not to those who want a tattoo just for aesthetics.
I am not even suitable for those who want to bring me the tattoo, thinking that I just have to do it.
I am not suitable for those who want commercial subjects or those who have already made a scientific choice based on a map of meanings found on Google; there are rules of composition and management of history in addition to meanings, rules that must be followed to create harmony and feeling and not a bunch of subjects placed side by side in chaos.
I’m sorry, but then we won’t be able to work together.
I want to listen a story, read a different book every day and learn from you a new slice of the world.
I was born in a bookstore … it seems stupid to draw without a story, I just can’t do it
from my BLOG:
THE ROCK HOUSE
it's my tattoo studio, but above all it's my home.
The Rock House was born from the need to create a unique place where I could dedicate myself intimately to art and reconnect myself to the splendor of nature … after having used my energy externally for so long, was born the desire to return to myself .
Inside the Rock House there is “The Salottino Rock – the Rock Lounge”, my tattoo studio, born as meeting and exchange place for unconventional minds that see and live the world in their own way.
MEANING OF THE NAME :
#lounge: because it is inspired by the early twentieth century French salons, run by diplomatic women, were you can met open minds people, philosophers, artists, painters, poets, writers … a place to start changing the world.
#rock: by definition it is all that is nonconformist, who sees things from a different point of view from the majority of society, a word of protest and revolt, freedom of expression, of change
The goal of the Rock Lounge is to work humbly and with dedication to spread art as much as possible in the world, to make it more tattooed, more colorful, happier, more expressive and more alive, maybe … more aware.
LADY ON TOUR :
SORRY, there are no stops currently scheduled
actually it is not my intention to travel because I am aware that the quality of the product and services that I can offer is better if I stay here in my niche in the world, outside of civilization
I am aware that some small steps are needed to contact the society, to meet friends, make some gossip and stay updated on new materials and equipment …
maybe some short stops of the LADY SARA ON TOUR will still be scheduled ^_^ #STAYTUNED

HOW I WORK
I don’t prepare draft in advance I draw with the client, for the client
I will tell you stories of hidden symbologies and treasures to be found under apparently less complex images, but with an unconsciously stronger emotional impact. I will explain to you myths and legends, but also technical and logical bases to create a good tattoo and we will arrive together to the final project of your tattoo …. speaking in the meantime of techniques, colors and effects …. every detail will be sweetly programmed before we start tattooing, but we will program it together. the tattoo is no longer yours and not just mine, but of us

THE LADY SARA GARANTEE
My tattoos are recognizable and invisibly wear my signature, so I want them to be perfect, because they are my best business card.
So let’s see what I can and want to guarantee:
original sketch
design created together with the customer and for the customer guarantee the originality of the design and that will never be reproduced on others
100% approved designs
16 years of experience and high level techniques
I have studied and worked with the best national and international tattoo artists and I continue to study and deepen the techniques of tattooing, the new products available on the market and also a vast spectrum of artistic activities that increase my artistic awareness and my manual ability.
moreover, 16 years of work experience in the world of tattoos have shown me thousands of different cases, different skin types and possible problems.
Are you curious about the details? You can read my detailed CURRICULUM VITAE
HIGH QUALITY materials
I carefully select the materials that I use from the best brands on the market that offer sustainable vegan and eco-friendly products, regardless of costs, sometimes too much … but the quality of the customer’s experience depends largely on this. The materials are all vegan and nickel free for a better tolerance from the body.
proceeding according to law
I optimized my production process following the AUSL regulations but also the eco-sustainable ethical guiding principles; I use only disposable materials.
99% of my tattoos need no retouching.
I do everything I have to do in respect of the client, the procedure and the materials used, but the skin is alive and has free will on its healing modality so there may be small spots where the color decides not to stay under the skin for this reason I offer you a free the touch-up of the parts of tattoo that have found difficulty in healing, to be performed within 4-6 weeks from the first appointment
