#24 Froglets


A practice that I've seen and even worked with a couple times now is finding artwork that you like from sources online and having them tattooed on you. I really like the idea of having something original on your skin. I don't mean to say that traditional flash isn't great, but I definitely favor artistic flair. Especially when the tattoo looks like it was sketched with a pen like this one. I kind of feel like making works of art should be about creating an effect, and it's not always necessary to have a perfect line. All of the lining in this one was done with a single-needle bit, gone over multiple times to create squiggly lines. Really fun stuff!
