Sounds great! I think if you had a great artist he/she would understand exactly what you want. Now you can start searching for reference material. I'd look for a photograph of a dragonfly in the position you want, maybe find some photos or drawing...

Hi guys. I'm new here. I don't have any tattoos currently, but I'm very open to them.
