Beets Anyone?

by Glenna on March 28, 2013

Ha!  When you love beets, all you can do is get a tattoo of the beets, right?  Well…okay. If you say so!  This looks like a calf placement for this tattoo and the curves there are perfect for this piece.  The artist, Mark Blanchard, achieved a nice blend on the purples throughout the entire tattoo.  [...]

Hawk and Rainbow Trout Back Tattoo

by Glenna on May 2, 2012

Uh, like… how amazing is this hawk and rainbow trout back tattoo?  I saw this and my jaw dropped! Done by Tim Harris, this incredible example of fine line tattooing is just too gorgeous and done perfectly.  The absolute dedication to the details in the work is awe inspiring, to say the least.  Take a [...]

Flowers And Hummingbird Tattoo

by Glenna on May 1, 2012

This flowers and hummingbird tattoo was done by Gustavo Lopez of LowRider Tattoo in California.  Traditionally a fan of black and white, Gustavo branched out to combine his experience and love of traditional black and white tattoo styles with color.  This nature scene does seem to have a bit darker of an appeal that is [...]

Scarecrow

by Glenna on January 25, 2012

Here’s an odd themed tattoo. A dark looking scarecrow with a noose around his neck and a crow on his shoulder, ironically enough. What makes this a unique scarecrow is the shape of the face, body, and clothes he’s wearing. Usually scarecrows are lumpy and disfigured but here he has more definite shapes that look human. [...]

Crying Woman

by Glenna on January 6, 2012

Here’s a really cool tattoo that has a crying woman portrayed as some sort of tribute. I really love the colors and style of this tattoo, as well as objects around the woman such as the black bird or crow flying over her head, the moon with a bold capital X in the middle of it, [...]

Gargoyle Cover-Up

by Glenna on April 15, 2011

Here is another fine example of a cover up of a smaller tattoo, and once again the second image chosen was a much better choice.  The Gargoyle seen here is not a hunched or statue image so commonly represented.  This is no static picture!  The Gargoyle here is ready for battle, with wings aglow and [...]

Beautiful Fancy Fish

by Glenna on March 24, 2011

This little beauty is an fancy fish indeed!  Great shading work inside crisp swirls and curves all along the body as well as the fins and tail.  There is a scroll-work feel to the face.  The touches of white are a nice addition and help add some extra personality to the fish.  Love the flowing, [...]

The Music In Me

by Glenna on March 4, 2011

For some reason, this tattoo really makes me smile.  As a slightly above average music lover (but also as someone who cannot even read sheet music) there is a bit of jealously towards those who are very artistically inclined.  I admit it.   That said, you don’t have to know much to feel the emotion [...]

Fun Eyes

by Glenna on February 22, 2011

Here is a really fun tattoo of some eyes.  One on each arm, they are artful and interesting all by themselves.  But put them together and you have a mystical pair of eyes staring right at you.  The artist free handed this particular design, which is impressive indeed.   There is a softness to the eyes [...]
