Any recommendations for a RVA tattoo artist for non-traditional blackwork? I have two large, conceptual pieces I'd like to get done - a full chestpiece and a full sleeve - and am looking for recommendations for local artists. I'm new to town and am not familiar with any of the shops or artists around.
Both need to be completely in black, and I'm looking for non-traditional artists. I have concepts for both that can be discussed, and would love to find someone who can work with me to execute the art. I'm partial to heavy lines, pointillism, and hatch shading. The concepts call for sort of spooky, modern, post-apocalyptic art.
If anybody knows someone who fits the bill, I'd love to hear about them. Thanks so much, reddit. :)

I've asked several (random) people with black or black and gray work that I really loved where they got their work done, and they've all said either Charles or Ish at [Heros and Ghosts] (http://www.heroesandghosts.net/).
