Project Description

Thanks to my genius Twitter follower @GunhilChung for this one! ART FOR ART"S SAKE

I recently put up corporate branding space on my arm and shoulders up for sale on Ebay but was forced to pull the listing. HOWEVER that isn't going to stop me from going ahead with my plan to play ball in July.

ART FOR ART'S SAKE

The new comp is purely art for art's sake. Tattoo artists of the world I am asking you if you would come up with an original creation for me.. Then if we raise the money in time, myself and carla come up with a top ten, then  everyone who donated gets to vote on the final tattoo! Effectively people of the world becoming my sponsors :) 

So I am looking for a cool new design/picture (absolutely no commercial logos or business associations) that we can still get tattooed on the top part of my shoulder/ left upper arm/ just upper arm... Submit in small pdf or jpeg format. to clk003[A]student.usc.edu.au . Please note I can't pay you in cash.

The rules

NO COMMERCIAL LOGOS OR BUSINESS association, Vulgar or rude images will be accepted. Size is approx 10cm by 10cm possibly a bit more, but can't be too big as I still need to train and be able to play unhindered in event which is scheduled July 18. And it has to be completed in approx 3-4 hours or two sittings of approx 2-3 hours each. 

The decision and the tattoo

IF we raise the money we need (at least $10,000) by July 5, myself and Carla select the top ten tattoos.. We post/submit our top ten out to everyone who donated to choose the final image I get on my arm... with majority vote wins.

I get my new tattoo and you guys get to have some fun... ;p

So now we have a chance to still make our dream come true without getting into trouble! Of course if I am advised I have to cover it up during competition I will, so please understand this.

Everyone who donates more than $5 gets a vote. Everyone who donates more than $50 equivalent in money or services gets listed in the TeamCK section under official sponsors and their donation (or product) amount and Twitter name listed. $100 you get your website listed too as long as it's not rude or anything. Plus hopefully we can send you all postcards (or maybe even a supporters tee?) if you send on your addresses later on down the line.

But effectively the world is my sponsor - everyday people who just want to help! And everyday I look at that tattoo I am reminded about how amazing the world is :) You guys would be with me the whole way as my life partners! hehe

I will set a date, venue, film and blog the event with a date within the realms of letting me heal in time to still play! Obviously I would have to conform and respect all competition protocol as necessary. But this way I can get a wicked tattoo (ie. no commercial logo) and have some real fun with you guys as well.
