Like if I draw up a tattoo of my own, I dont want some clown ruining it by trying to make it his own.

I had a nice long argument with my tattoo artist about my tattoo. I'm an artist and I basically told him that its MY art I want on MY body, and if I could tattoo I'd do it to myself, he was just the instrument to achieve what I wanted. It was pretty insulting but I obviously wasn't in a classy place, nor did the artist have too much of a reputation yet. We ended up compromising and he altered it a bit but it was mainly mine still.
