Here’s a concise briefing you can give your artist: “I want a black and grey fine-line full sleeve on my **left** arm using only birth flowers, with all months equally important. The months and flowers are: - June: rose, honeysuckle - November: chrysanthemum - September: aster, morning glory - July: larkspur, water lily - February: violet, primrose - October: marigold, cosmos - April: daisy, sweet pea Please design a flowing, cohesive sleeve with stems and leaves tying everything together, no color, light soft shading only. I’m 5'3", average build, so I’d like medium-sized blooms instead of lots of tiny ones, and each month should have at least one clearly visible flower on the outer arm and one I can see easily when I look at my arm. No single flower should be the obvious centerpiece; I want the visual weight of each month to feel balanced.” Sources
