The Getaway (Half Sleeve Tattoo)

Background:
This sleeve by Yovany featured a shark attack style plane, flying away from a dark forest. The plane symbolized his escape from the negative aspects of his life, represented by the dark forest. Great use of colours.

Work in Progress: Dragons & Castles (Full sleeve and shoulder tattoo)

Background:
This European dragon is massive: reaching from his hand, up his arm, around his shoulder, almost to the centre of his chest. It’s based off of European mythology, and features a dragon destroying a castle (best seen in the middle photo).

It’s still in progress, with colour to be added.

Work in Progress: Dragon & Flowers (Full colour sleeve tattoo)

Background:
This tattoo is about 80% complete and has a large purple dragon from the shoulder to the wrist, with flowers around the end of the forearm. There are still a few more flowers to fill in along the inside of the arm – will get detailed shots when it’s complete!

Work in Progress: Geisha (Forearm Tattoo)

Background:
Yovany has been busy with the Geishas lately. This one was done as a sleeve for a client who originally had flowers on her arm. Yovany drew a freehand design of a geisha with waterfalls coming down from her shoulder into a river, complete with a landscape and cherry blossom trees. He also added a pagoda and Asian inspired scenery behind the geisha.

The outline and some of the colouring are done and will come back to finish it off soon. Stay tuned.

Heaven’s Cross Completed


Previously done by Yovany, the original cross with roses and dove was a great piece. The full sleeve is now complete and you can see how much detail was added and how each drawing is tied together.
