Tattoo Question

some artists can work around red-allergy clients by mixing a small amount of green into the black ink in the outlines, then using gray shading. the green ink fools your eye into thinking the gray is actually red since they're spectrum opposites.

Wow ive never heard about this. I can ask. This is very interesting. Wonder if I can experiment with this with paint on paper for now.

Thanks everyone for the input :)
