Missouri Dogwood Blossoms

Saturday, January 23rd, 2010 @ 11:29 pm | My Work, Tattoo

One thing Paul remembers fondly of growing up in the mid west was the vivid pink dogwood trees each spring. Someone told me the blooms are actually bracts, which is why they only have four petals.

I finally completed the dogwood flowers and touched up, (re-colored,) all of the psychedelic stuff and the matrioshka doll. I actually had done all but the flowers over a month ago, but so much of it had faded. The flowers and the re-coloring took 10 hours over 3 days.

Lesson learned: Never use the corner of a mag grouping to fill in solid color.

      Hello! I think you have a very special touch for tattoos and I love the inks that you use! You are really talented, I have been looking for a real artist with the ‘gift’ and I think I have found it! Where are you from? I am from Mexico but will be traveling soon. E-mail me if you can! :) GREAT
