The design must look like a professional black and grey ripped skin tattoo that can realistically be tattooed by an experienced artist. Priority is clean composition, bold outlines, readability and tattooability, not realism. Vertical composition. Five female mariachi musicians inspired by classic Latina and Hollywood actresses, without being exact portraits or recognizable celebrities. The center figure is the front singer, shown from about the waist up, holding a vintage microphone with one hand. Two trumpet players are positioned behind her, visible only from the shoulders upward. Two guitar players frame the composition below them. The guitars are simplified so they are instantly recognizable but do not dominate the artwork. All five wear elegant gothic mariachi outfits with sombreros.
