    Kerry - Metal Urges (Tralee) & Pachamama (Killarney)
    Limerick - All-Star
    Cork - SmileyDogg or Dave Barry for nice dotwork

    Each studio I mentioned would have very different styles, it's all down to personal taste and what design you were after.

    Here's Dave's portfolio, dotwork. He'd knock out some very nice Celtic designs - https://www.facebook.com/david.barry.3386/media_set?set=a.384024148334301.88315.100001801567830&type=3

    thanks ,I see very intricate stuff there alright. I think I know what now . Its an Irish harp in gold coloring with Erin go brach in black maybe old Gaelic lettering surrounded with a garland of shamrocks in green, but I need to find an image a very finely detailed harp with the maid of Erin head on it...any ideas about where this type of image would be ?

    Honestly Google is your best bet. Find some references you like and want to incorporate in to your tattoo head in to your chosen artist and explain what it is exactly you are after. They will be able to tell you what will work together/as a tattoo and you can go from there.

    If your ever in listowel, there's a bar called the maid of erin with a statue of what your describing over the front of the building. It might give you a few ideas.

    I'm sure google would pop a few pics up!
