Hey all! Does this seem like a good artist?

Hi! I've read this forum so much to learn more about tattoos that I thought it's really time I join. 

I have two tattoos from my college days. I really researched and picked the best artist available in my city. Sadly, the options were limited and I should have travelled 😅. A decade on and I plan to get one covered, and one spruced up.

I don't want to make the same mistake, especially since I have a larger piece (whole side of thigh) in mind. I've been window shopping artists for months and always come back to this one. I just absolutely love her style and ability to mix realism and stylized elements. However, my knowledge stops at "hey that looks cool", I have no idea about technique. Is someone willing to take a quick look at her portfolio and tell me if she seems like a good, professional choice?

Hey, I like her. Looks like her application is solid and she has good design skills, too. 

What are you getting covered and with what? Pictures.

This is the first project (upper thigh), the one I plan to spruce up. I love my lady, except for the fact she is farting a thunder storm 😅 I'll let the artist fill it in how they like, but hopefully still keeping it colour. The photo is horrible but it is still as vibrant as the day I got it (it has seen sun about 10 times 😂). The rest will be black and white (greyscale?). Stylized mountains above, semi-realism wildflowers underneath and running down my thigh about half way, and half a mandela on my bum. I looooove mixed styles and colour/greyscale, but I am 0% artistic so it'll be completely up to the artist to decide what works and what doesn't. Should end up being a pretty big project.

Sounds like it could be fun. Who is the artist?
