Psyched to share this addition to a client’s sleeve. He came in wanting to mark a few chapters of his life, so we built out the story together, he was insistent on particular imagery and I feel like it all tied together with what he already had
My job was to take those pieces and weave them into one flow so everything lives together on the arm. Placement, movement, light. All of it working as a single narrative instead of separate parts.
This is the kind of work I love. A client with a story, a little trust, and space for me to build something that’ll walk the earth with them for the rest of their life.
Built using the superior @ironcladtattooink greywash set, the smoothest set on the market.
Since this was a two day piece I rely on @tattoogoo solid formula for its process butter and foam soap to keep the skin healthy while I’m tattooing and in between days
@clear_cut_stencils was a lifesaver again for me when lining up stencils on that second day. It’s a stencil cheat
And of course @boldbooking.io for keeping everything running smoothly in the background while I focus on my tattoo work
