And this is the first color portrait he’s ever done! This is by Paul Oliver at Lucky Soul’s Tattoo in Cambridge, Ontario. Definitely a very good vert attempt!

It’s done beautifully! Every baby portrait I’ve seen makes the baby look bruised or undead… hahah.

WOW! I’m so impressed! Portrait tattoos almost always come out a little skewed, but this one is phenomenal. It’s really hard to believe that this could be a first attempt, the artist is really the epitome of a tattoo artist. Excellent at tattooing and clearly an incredible artist in the traditional sense.

I’ve got to echo the sentiments above at how finely done this piece is.
But, does anyone else think having babies staring out off of somebody’s body would be a major mood killer when naked? Hopefully it doesn’t for everyone, or else he won’t make another one.

Actually…..
I guess I’m the only one out here, but I don’t like it that much. The eyes kind of scare me and the chin looks funny.
Maybe that’s cos I don’t like children…. but yeah. The shading is great, don’t get me wrong, but the whole thing just does not work for me.

i like this a lot, but i think without the shading in black it would look more natural. and i want a hat like that.

#20 – It wouldn’t be for me – I have kids, and if I was single and came across a guy that devoted to his baby, I would melt!
#33 – Babies generally look like that, esp. that young, the squeezy face and intense stare; that’s part of what makes them so adorable 🙂
