Butterfly Coverup...

As most of y'all know I really hate "butterfly tattoos" but hey you have to still please the clients who don't read my blogs too...as long as she was happy then I'm happy.. I just want to make sure ALL City of Ink clients are pleased and happy with their new body art... She asked for a butterfly, rose, and 3 stars for your 3 children...I couldn't make the rose "red" when doing the coverup so I made it purple... Using dark colors makes the coverup way more easy to do...thanks a lot and I hope you had a safe drive back SC.

Hand Tattoo..

I been working on this sleeve for about a year now...the next step was covering his hand


I pulled out the sharpie markers and got the design out my mind... He wanted a classic "Laugh Now Cry Later" theme


Once the marker design is laidout and approved by the client... I did the outline.. Making sure it's clean and solid


After the outline I did the shading.. Making sure my machine is running smoothly so it could have soft smooth shading








This piece hook me about 2 hours to do... I also have video of me doing the outline of this tattoo on YouTube.com/miyabailey
