Sleeve Help? Mixed styles.

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to come up with a sleeve concept to fill out my arm, and I could really use some help putting the ideas together.

Here’s what I’ve got so far:

• My right arm is mostly dedicated to photography and family themes.
• I want to get a traditional “Mom Heart” style tattoo. maybe on my shoulder, or maybe on my chest customized to fit my life (already have a rough sketch).
• Thinking about adding a realistic crow on my upper bicep/shoulder area.
• I’d also like to incorporate some traditional Irish elements or filler, and a nod to my German heritage (even though I know there’s not really a classic German tattoo style).
• I grew up Catholic, and St. Francis is my patron saint, so it would be cool to work that in somehow since I love realistic Angelic tattoos.
• Lastly, I want to tie in both Texas and Michigan, since they’re both important places to me. Born in Michigan and moved to Texas.
• I have a large piece on the outside of my forearm of a woman holding a camera.

Right now, most of my tattoos are more patchwork, so I’m trying to figure out how to bring all these ideas together into a cohesive sleeve.

If anyone has thoughts on how these elements could flow together, or would be up for sketching something, I’d seriously appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
