Abstract Black Arm Tattoo

By Shannon • Mar 10th, 2006 • Category: ModBlog

I’ve featured work by Lionel (Out of Step, France) here before, but I really liked the way this full-black forearm was capped off. I think I’d like it better though if the hand was fully black as well, as if he’d fallen into a barrel of black ink or something. But black hands are pretty weird looking I guess and would move the tattoo into a very different visual space.

    would have been cool if there were different colored eyes peeking out of the darkness
