Side Tattoos: Follow the Curves

I did this piece Saturday... It was an allday session... I started with the outline of course, the theme was "rebirth & the past" I wanted to use her natural curves to guide the design....I wanted your eyes to follow her body... Listened to some good music to capture the "emotion"


Once the outline was over I started the shading... Taking my time to get smooth soft shading


I added the color next... I used the music that was playing to picked the colors... Different music puts me in a different zone


After hours of tattooing I can tell it was starting to hurt her.. So I finished her up so she could fly back to Miami and brag about the day she spent at City of Ink
