Why is it so hard to get an appointment with Steve Moore? I understand that he is a busy man, but he doesn't even return e-mails which I have sent for months. Should I just give up?

Do not give up on Steve. He is very busy and last I knew was not taking new clients. He has very many large scale projects in the works and chooses not to take on too much of a work load so that he can give 100% to his clients. Keep trying to contact him, he is well worth the wait. I have a knee tattoo done by him and he was a pleasure to work with, just be patient.

Just like Larry said, be persistent, but not annyoing. Just let him know from time to time (after every 2-3 months would be propably good), that you are still intrested, so he knows that you serious. And could be that your idea is something that he has done many many times, so he just isnt feeling it right now. After all, he is and artist and human beign, not a copy machine ;)
I had emailed him a few months ago asking about an appointment and got an email back saying that he's not taking any new clients right now and to try again next summer. He's a busy guy with quite a few people wanting to get work from him. If you want some art from someone like that, you have to be willing to wait to get it.
If you look at his website he specifically says he doesn't answer all emails and doesn't often take on new clients. I'm sure he gets flooded with emails.
Artists as good as him have a huge waiting list and they get to be picky about what they do and dont' want to do. Sucks for those waiting but tattoo artists like Steve can only do so much at once. I give them credit for being so dedicated to certain people and pieces.
Waiting does suck though, but if it's worth it to you, then wait.
Thanks Mary for looking that up. I am sure no one else in the world knew that.
Eh, I'm a little bit confused as to whether you were being sarcastic just then, but if you weren't trying to be a jerk, then your welcome?
SD, did you read the original post that mary was responding to?
