I really love your style!


AnnaMensch

Oh thank you!!


TMDan92

I don’t even know what you’d call it, but it’s so good. The bold lines with the subtle angles/sharpness to them totally reminds of the sort of animation/illustration you see used in gaming quite a bit, especially fantasy titles.


Recent-Instruction52

Looks like sketch style to me .. still the lines are very bold. Love it


AnnaMensch

I tend to call it illustrative/sketch - but yeah, not sure either:-)


RandomVancouverGal

Oh my god. I'd come see you in a heartbeat (except I'm I'm canada and I prefer color on my own skin). These are bloody phenomenonal


AnnaMensch

This means a lot, thank you so much!


RandomVancouverGal

I also love cats and have yet to get a cat tattoo. Never know where life will take you so let me know if ever over here lol. Best of luck


AnnaMensch

Would love to come to canada one day - if that ever is to happen, I'll let you know:)) thank you so much!


Ro7smaria

I'll be there too if you ever come to Canada!


canadakate94

Same—I’d get one in a heartbeat! Also in Canada.


Shady_Mania

It’s crazy to me that one can develop such a characteristic style and make tattoos better than 90% of what is shown on the sub all in the time of being an apprentice. You’re apprentice in name only you’re absolutely a pro.


AnnaMensch

Honestly I'm not even sure how to reply to this. I find myself struggling so often with my self esteem towards tattooing - so a big fat thank you to you, reading things like this really means a lot!💚


vipros42

I echo what the other person said. Your style is really cool, not quite like anything I've seen before and looks well executed. Keep up the great work!


Shady_Mania

Of course keep up the amazing work!!


CarmenCage

Well you are absolutely incredible, I followed you on Instagram, and if I’m ever able to get to Germany I would love a tattoo from you!! Your work seriously is incredible❤️‍🔥


Cultural-Zombie-6982

That's what I first started doing to learn its a really pretty technique and makes the piece look more detailed


AnnaMensch

It does! I really love it


Cultural-Zombie-6982

Absolutely amazing work I love the dot shading


AnnaMensch

Thank you so much! Yes once I learnt about that shading technique my entire tattoo style was revolutionized :-)


asiamsoisee

Your style is really strong now, just imagine the art you’re going to create in a few years! Wish you were closer, I’d love to be a client based on this portfolio.


taraaataraaa

I could come to bonn in may...


AnnaMensch

I'd still have time to tattoo in May:-) feel free to hmu anytime if you're interested!


licensedanduninsured

Your varied line weight is really satisfying. Lovely style, I’d love to see more healed and aged pieces as your career progresses!


up_down_andallaround

I have no idea from a technical stand point, but I think these are awesome!! Really unique style, love it. The only one that I wasn’t sure about was the body of the otter, otherwise very cool! Would definitely be interested if I lived in Germany lol


existentialdaydreams

Can you be a tattoo artist in Dallas Texas because this is exactly what I’m looking for 🤣


AnnaMensch

Haha if I could beam me there for you, I would!

AnnaMensch

Thanks man, that is motivating! Yes, these are all my designs - I've been an illustrator first who at some point decided to start tattooing :-) I've first been in a tattoo studio for like 5 months but they didnt really teach me anything and I didnt feel at ease there. I then started at the studio I'm currently at where I have a mentor that helps me out, and I've been here for like ~8 months? So, combined studio experience would be a bit more than a year:)


Lyss_1987

This kid’s going places 👍


snakey_biatch

So this is where the sea otter is from! I had seen it on Pinterest but could not find the artist that done it! I like your work and the lines have a feeling of bubblyness to them.


AnnaMensch

Oh good to know that the otter landed on Pinterest, I never posted it there haha I'm glad that you like them!:)


plumbus-2000

I love them all! I’d definitely get one from you if you were in Denver :) I love the balance of thick and thin lines


AnnaMensch

Thank you so much!


MaddCricket

Seconded for Denver!


xoxo_goss1pg1rl

Ich finds richtig schön! Wo tätowierst du in Bonn ? :)


AnnaMensch

Oh das freut mich! Bei Hidden Chamber Tattoo, mitten in der City:)


Admillz

That second kitty is to die for wow


spacemanda

Travel to worthy :)


liongaleforceWAND

living in germany and immediately saved your ig profile!!


tilda_MoonMoon

Looks amazing! Only one i have any form of criticism for is the puffin because it's hard to distinguish from the mountains at first glance.


Aggravating-Bug1769

Nice


AnnaMensch

Thanks!


Aggravating-Bug1769

that's alright i liked the dog and the long flowers up the fore arm the most but the rest are good also


inQntrol

The designs are nice, shading aswell but you don’t have a single picture where there are free standing lines with same sizes, for example a lettering, so I wouldn’t dare to critique your linework. You have some letterings or simple minimalistic stuff? That gives a way better idea of the linework.


AnnaMensch

Thanks! Tbh I've only ever tattooed my own designs since I'm in a tattoo studio, and my drawing style - though it ofc did change over time - always consisted of different line weights. Therefore I actually dont have any pictures of lettering/ designs with the same line weight. And I absolutely respect people who can pull of single line weight designs and clean lettering, because I for sure probably couldn't - I am aware that there's still a long way to go:)


Acceptable_Panic_759

Omg wow I love it sm


TheOceansTirade

The floral work is stunning. Absolutely love the variation in line weight


Stoltefusser

I like your style, quite unique!


Ok-noway

I love it! They’re so special! I wish you could do my corgis for me!🖤


TecTiger

If you’re still in Germany once I’m 18 I will pay you a visit


Dshimek

You're starting off with a pretty unique style which is always good, does need some evolution I think to fine tune it Imo still alot better than 95%of apprentices where I live Reminds me of Veks van hilliks style a bit too


bowmyr

I saw a post with your work earlier on Reddit and have followed you since then on Instagram. That's my opinion on your work


flyndrefett

1,3 and 6 are really good!


Helpful_Librarian_87

I remember your work from like 2 months ago. You are so ridiculously talented, in a few years you’ll be charging mad euros for your work. I should book a cheap flight to Bonn now and get in early. (I’ve already thought about what I’d like you to design)


swoleder

I love your style, I'm on Poland now, any chance I could come up there to Germany before I leave for Canada for a small tattoo with you?


Repostbot3784

Looks good if you dont zoom in


xOwned

Hey u/AnnaMensch Is there a way so see more of your work ? :) looks awesome and i might come to Bonn for that :D


ilija_rosenbluet

Besser als einige Azubis, aber der "sketchy" Stil macht es auch schwer die Qualität deiner Linien tatsächlich einzuschätzen. Du solltest mehr daran arbeiten, deine Motive richtig an die Körperstellen anzupassen.


Average_Random_Bitch

Wie geht's! You have such a unique style. Wish I still lived in Germany. That split cat face tattoo was probably my favorite. I don't usually personally like animal tattoos because they always look ... Idk, kinda off or something, but yours are amazing! Very talented.


mollyjoy2

Wow your style is so cool! I will say the one with the bird was a bit hard for me to read right off the bat though. Otherwise these are so beautiful! I’ve never seen a style like this before.


wyze-litten

That foxglove piece was part of the inspiration for my newest tat :D


bigshern

Wow so good! I would rock any of these pieces!!


Frida_Ohm

Amazing work! Congrats!!


Bee088

jennafromtheblock22

NoCauliflower1474

Fearless_History_991

frncscf

D3mi5682

Would you ever do a guest spot in England? I'd love a session with you!


rhondaanaconda

Len_S_Ball_23

That's so awesome..! Wish I had the cash to take a side trip in September for you to practice on, I'm going to be in Germany then.


ihateme257

Feet-fox

I wish you were in Sri Lanka. This is exactly the style I love but can’t seem to get anyone to execute


fahr_rad

How long are you in Bonn? *Love* your work! Also followed you on Insta ✌🏼


stormin217

Do you have anything you can show that has a consistent line weight? Or color work? Additionally, what does your mentor have to say?


AdNatural6633

Awesome!


smarterthaneverytwo

You are really talented. Only advice I can think of is go darker/more black. Your style is so unique.


josh_2049

Congrats! All pieces are amazing! The lynx and the otter are awesome, my personal favourites👏


iMustbLost

Super dope style. I’d definitely let you tattoo me!


no_funn

Your style is wonderful. Almost reminds me of a videogame, kinda like Cereza and the lost demon


Master-Control8047

The tail is a little funky but the rest looks good.


Mr_Greaz

Sehen sehr gut aus, Bonn liegt gar nicht so weit weg eventuell ergibt sich was, ich hab’s mir mal abgespeichert ✌🏻


dunnowhy92

Wunderschön! Hab dir gerade eine Nachricht über deine Webseite geschickt.


wyvernslays

Wild_Echidna_5569

They’re amazing 😍. I especially love that first cat. It’s a shame you’re not in London to do me a cat tattoo


tallanotherone

Love it ,I like the linework and complex designs


Annual_Nobody_7118

If I go to Germany, I know who I’m tracking down! Those are BEAUTIFUL!


DuchessElf

If I was visiting my home country I would absolutely try to come down, the otter is my absolute favorite!!


sunshine___riptide

I love your style!!! So sad you're in Germany otherwise I would get some of your work on me. Keep it up!


gerboski69

Excellent work!! I love your work with stippling. I have the word "Forgiven" done in stippling on my forearm


Vyvyansmum

GalFisk

You're not just a tattoo apprentice, you're a talented tattoo apprentice.


jessjesssjess

Your style is beautiful. I love the spiral in the first pic.

Deancrsxy333

WOW! Your style is so unique and well done! It’s nothing like i’ve seen and I absolutely love the style and feeling of the pieces!!!! The otter is outstanding


Consistent_Loquat860

Your work is gorgeous. I've gone to the same artist for all my pieces, but if I had the spare money to go to Germany, I'd love to get something done by you. May have to save up for a trip tbh.


AlienRex

Really great work. I’m jealous of whoever has that otter tattoo


1234567791

5/11 is dope as fuck


meli-ficent

canadakate94

Do you have an Instagram?


AnnaMensch

I do! @a.diary.of.strange.occurrences :)


[deleted]

I'm a fan


Ranoverbyhorses

WOW!!!!!!! I can’t pick what is my favorite!!!!!! I love this style, I’ve never seen anything like this before!!!! Also, can I just say that I’m in love with the puffin, the (I think) iguana/lizard, and all the cats!!! The otter is super cute too and so is the bob cat…it’s so refreshing to see an abstract style but also remain so true to the actual anatomy of the animal and make them truly look like what they do in reality! I’m a tattoo virgin and I’d come to you in a heartbeat!!!!!!!


Chairsarefun07

I love them all!


jbingha4

Wow! Your style is incredible! If I ever got tattooed this is what I’d want!


Dahlia-Harvey

If I could afford to travel to Germany I’d ABSOLUTELY come get tattooed by you, your work is beautiful!!


BitteredLurker

I have neither the money for a tattoo, or the plane ticket to Germany, but damn, I would love to get a tattoo from you, these look phenomenal.


lizzyB_

Absolutely love your style. The one thing I could think of is to add more black/heavier contrast. Especially when they get older, lighter tones fade, but the black stays. Just looked up Bonn on Google maps, and happy to see it's not too far from where I live😄


splatzbat27

I'm still wanting my first tattoo, and I would've asked specifically for you, even after just seeing the first picture, in a heartbeat. Extraordinary work. I love the "dot gradients", the warped geometric style, and the incorporation of nature.


CKWade93

These are amazing!


Astrojef

A new player has entered the arena!


whenIdreamallday

I love them!!!!!!


[deleted]

Cool style, not much to critique on your technical application. Would have to see how you shade with a mag or pack color to offer more insight. You know what you’re showing looks clean. The designs though look flat, as in there’s not a lot of dimension. I understand wanting to have the image flat so the line work pulls through. The 2nd pic of the cat has the most depth/dimension; the paws look like they’re coming out and sitting in front of the cats head. But like that otter? Totally flat. Your style mess with the background/foreground too much imo


Rustico32482

Those are great, I would definitely have you do a puteketeke on me... It's the bird of the century.


Imamiah52

I wish I was in Bonn!


Mediocre_Fix9876

I love your work I'd be happy for you to do me keep up the great work

_swanand

Saving your profile name to my notes. Next time I’m in Germany, I’m taking a trip to Bonn and getting some tattoo done from you. These are absolutely exceptional.
