Work In Progress Tattoos
A few previews of tattoos currently in progress.
Below is a current sleeve project based on paintings by Alex Grey. Doubling as one of my personal favorite artists; getting to work on this piece and even having him repost it on his own Instagram page is simply exhilarating! I’m very excited to finish this up.

This half sleeve is a coverup of the tattoos in the image to the right. Given the trust to create a true night sky has led this to be one of my favorites. I was always obsessed with the cosmos; I’ve really let my imagination wander working on this.

Eventually this “armor” tattoo will take up his shoulders and full chest. It has been an amazing experience thus far. The wrap around collarbone neck piece and silver shoulder are really bringing this together. I’m excited to see how the gold pans out.

The slight color changes from teals to seafoam greens in this peacock make such a big difference. This should be a truly vibrant tattoo when finished with the background as well.

Roses will always be a golden classic! This is actually his first tattoo as well.

This band will be broken up into two parts, Black and grey roses down low and color roses up top.

This piece is based on the animations from Studio Ghibli. I always appreciated the imagination behind these types of animations and recreating the poster this is from reminds me just how much we can say with art.

This last one is actually on my fiancée. It’s something she drew up herself that I added my own color touches and slight style too to turn it into a half sleeve. We’re nowhere close to finished but it has a lot of meaning behind it and of course doing it on her means the world to me. :)
