Hello everyone,

I've been on the lookout for tattoo artists that specialize or have some focus in Arabic calligraphy, but they seem quite hard to find, particularly outside of primarily Arabic speaking countries. I'm wondering if we can try to compile some sort of list and perhaps I will discover new ones that I haven't found already. For reference here are a few:

• Kosay al Rifai - Currently in Buenos Aires
• MOESTR - Currently in Beirut
• Ink Monk - Currently in Madrid
• Nancy Amhaz - Currently in Beirut

There seem to be a few others in Beirut as well, which is not too surprising. I would expect however that there may be some in major cities such as NYC, Paris, or London but I don't know of any. If anyone knows please share!

Also I know that I could also hire a calligrapher and take the design to a tattoo artist, but ideally I'm looking for someone with some knowledge of the Arabic language and how it's written.
