Religious Tattoo advice

    Hey people,

    I'm looking at getting a tattoo in Dublin and I need some advice on who the best artist would be to do it.

    I'm looking at getting an image of either the praying hands with rosary beads or jesus the shephard. Also somewhere around the tattoo would be the phrase from Psalm 23:4 which reads

    'Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me'

    I'm planning on getting the phrase in either Hebrew or Aramaic once I find a genuine translation.

    Here are the images I'm deciding on:

    Obviously I don't want them the same as these theyare just some examples. And the Jesus one will just be Him without the sheep.

    Thanks for your time

    I would suggest snakebite in upper abbey street. Erin would be my recommendation

    Leviticus 19:28, "Do not cut your bodies for the dead, and do not mark your skin with tattoos. I am the Lord."

    If you're going black and grey Remis is probably one of the most accomplished in Dublin, or Justin Russell. I'd opt against the hands with rosary beads, it's been done to death.
