    Hey guys

    Next year im lookin into gettin an Irish / Celtic sleeve done and im lookin for help / inspiration

    I dont want loads of celtic type bands,im lookin for old irish / celtic figures..

    something like the children or Lir,Tir na nog,all this kind of stuff from irish folklore and celtic mythology

    Main problem is ive not really seen much of this stuff in tattoos and my irish / celtic history hasnt remained in my head since i left school so i need some pointing in the right direction,i need some ideas and such.also is there any tattoo artists in dublin that would be the best choice for this kind of sleeve

    Go into easons or wherever & you should be able to find a section with books on celtic artwork & celtic mythology. You might be able to find something that pins down what your thinking.

    Can't speak to the artist bit sorry.

    This is good advise, im getting similar sleeve myself (xmas pressie from d misses :) )and thats exactly what i did, you can also buy cheap books on irish art like book of kells etc. helped me out a lot! Not from dublin so dont know any artists I'm afraid
