The dog will not care what the tattoos look like. All the dog will have known is being held down (or even mildly sedated?) while something happened which was fairly unpleasant. Tattoos can hurt. Humans are prepared for it, but a dog isn't, and doesn't desire such things or particularly wish to be 'inked'.
When the pain stops the dog will probably take an hour or two to feel even slightly normal again. The tattoos also can sometimes carry a risk of inflamed skin or even infection. Even when done by a careful tattoo artist. Sometimes there are skin reactions or allergies to the ink.
Tattooing a dog for identification purposes -I can understand. Doing it for 'art' is not fair to the dog, is egotistical, and not sensible.
