Fun with tattoos

by Henk ter Heide on Friday July 11, 2008

Funny illustrations by Mattias, abstract paintings by Leo Mayer and tattoo art by Shawn Barber.

Mattias Inks
Here’s a funny blog from a Swedish illustrator. Mattias creates drawings of creatures. All kind of creatures. Varying from robots to funny animals.
Here is one of his drawings commenting the recent European soccer championship.

Augarte by Leo Mayer
Looking at a painting like this, cold shivers run down my spine.
I don’t know what this is. Or what it is supposed to be. The title gives no information what so ever.
Further more I don’t even know whether I like it. But there is something fascinating about this painting.
Leo Mayer has many more paintings like this one.

Shawn Barber
And now for something different.
I must admit that after searching for artsites for about a year I’ve never seen anything like this site.
Shawn Barber is a tattoo artist who documents his own work and the work of his colleagues in what he calls Tattooed portraits. Which are exactly what they are. In some portraits you get to see (a part) of the person, but in most you only see the tattoo.
