Can I get a helen b illustration tattooed?
Absolutely! We’re often asked whether a helen b illustration can be tattooed by a tattoo artist. You can purchase a “tattoo ticket” through the webshop- it’s a way to show your support for my work if you’d like to have a helen b illustration as a tattoo. Many tattoo artists feel more comfortable (or even require) approval from the artist before tattooing their work, so this is a quick and easy way to provide that. Click here for all the details.
Where can I find helen b T-shirts and sweaters?
Selling clothing is a bit more complicated than selling porcelain (think of sizes, fits, etc.), which is why you won’t find them on our website. Fortunately, we’ve partnered with Inker, so you can order the coolest T-shirts and sweaters directly from them! You can find them here.
