Tattoo rough for my Suga.

so yeah like the title implies this is a rough idea for a tattoo .this will be to honor my Fiances past beloved pook dog in a Alphonse Mucha style layout.it doesn't take long while emulating his work that you realize the Genius at play with each of his pieces.After putting this loose image together i will be definitely taking advantage of our current age of computers and doing each element separately then scanning then combining then and redrawing the final all as one .should be interesting

quick notes:
-the flowers (weeds) at the bottom will become poppies

-the details in the ring will be stars and moons

Skate Board done!

Skate Board Art WIP2

Skate Board Art WIP

So a friend of mine is having a gallery show and he wants everyone to paint up a skate board deck .Awesome idea .i managed to hunt down a blank deck and primed it .I wasn't quite sure about how to go about thumb nailing it so i scaled down the measurements to fit on my trusty 5"x7" cut boards.
I drew out and inked in my idea and then i was looking at it and thought what the hell i should cut it out and bend it to loo like a real board.Gave me a pretty literal interpretation of what to expect when i work on the real thing.
