Neo-Traditional-ish Tattoos

  • This was a fun project! My client had some existing tattoos on his arm and wanted to fill the rest in to have a complete sleeve. I love his ideas and how this turned out. 
Thanks for being consistent with appointments C, and for trusting me with covering this much skin!

  • I had the opportunity to tattoo this crispy clean feline machine on to Chance yesterday!
While we were in the midst of tattooing, Chance asked, “Have you heard, of the conspiracy that the reason why Dolly Parton’s show dresses are all now long sleeved, is that she’s just absolutely covered head to toe in tattoos?🤩😎”
I hope it’s true!

  • The beautiful Diana from the flash archives has been claimed by the lovely kristineteee and I could not be happier with the placement of her gestural fluidity cascading over the shoulder blade. I love the blood red moon of symbolism, speaking the the emotions we feel, which are all that so innately primal and spiritual within us. Thank you Kristine! This was so much fun!🤗🙏✨❤️

Adding a salon style set of Neotraditional adornments to Jill’s ongoing homage to her astrological sign, Virgo on her leg sleeve! Jill is such a great contender for brilliantly vibrant pieces and as we add on, we will be connecting every piece with intuitive vine work to draw it all together.

  • Loved doing this fun pinup mermaid! Thanks again as always Madison!

  • The colourful floral nature sleeve for Hannah is almost done! A swirl of enticing freehand crimson marigold flowers surrounding the beautiful collection of fine line tattoos will be complete once we add a little butterfly at the top. 
Hannah was such a trooper and so patient as we took the time to carefully craft and plan the aesthetic that was just so suitable for her body’s gestural rhythm and her skin’s natural pigment! I couldn’t be happier with it and I hope Hannah is too!❤️

  • I’m especially grateful to those of you that give my flash designs a home! I’m so happy that I got to put this one in skin. Thanks C! 🥰🥰🥰
(Most of this is healed, just some touchups in the leaves are fresh.)

  • This little jackalope waited a long time to find the perfect home! Thanks so much, Loni!

  • Really excited about this coverup for M!

  • This is an extra special one for me! My partner asked me to do his very FIRST ever tattoo. I’m SO happy with how it looks and honoured that I got to be a part of this project.

  • A traditional style tattoo of a poison bottle, mushrooms, and a rose designed and tattooed by @sydneyctattoo. The traditional bold red ink never gets old, and is the only colour that would have matched this piece.
  • A classic mermaid, sitting on the moon in a traditional style. This tattoo was done on the thigh, by @sydneyctattoo. Incorporating black work into this piece was the right move, leaving positive space to appear as lights, especially in the mermaids beautiful hair.
  • Thank you again to the awesome weary_won for collaborating with me on another beautiful black and grey neotraditional art piece! This time a beautiful wolf piece for the top of the though. This was no small feat but Keri sat like a champ and we were able to pull off those pieces in just five hours!🙀

Well done Keri!✨🙏🤗 Thank you so much again!
  • Did you spot the serpent right away? Loving the vibrant colors and geometric design of this peony tattoo along with the sneaky little snake @katarina.heinze! 🐍🌸
  • Amazing phoenix tattoo done by @katarina.heinze! Love the yellow's, oranges, and the red's that make up the phoenix! Also love the flowers around the piece, all done in a colour realistic style with some thicker lines! Love the smoke going through the tattoo as well!!
  • Such a beautiful colour realistic mushroom piece done by @sydneyctattoo! There's a unique mix of earthy colours, as well as unnatural vibrant colours!! Lovely design!
  • An animal skull with florals tattoo done by @kristylynneart, with excellent colour choices. All related colours, being blues and greens or a mix off both.
  • @sydneyctattoo created this juicy looking Strawberry tattoo, in solid and soft colours. The white highlights in the berries are what make the strawberries look so attractive in this piece.
  • @kristylynneart had a flash piece, but custom designed it to match her client's kitty! We love this tattoo, because it's not only personal, but the greens contrast the orange cat; both which make this piece unique.
