Planning Your Sessions
Many projects require multiple sessions, especially large-scale pieces such as full sleeves, back or chest designs.
Sessions typically begin at 9:30 AM and finish around 3:00 PM each day.
A short break is included around midday.
For multi-session projects, we usually work on consecutive days, up to a maximum of four days in a row, depending on the design and your comfort.
I can help you plan your stay and organize your sessions to ensure your experience at the studio is smooth, well-paced and enjoyable.
