Cover-up work: the client’s previous dragon tattoo had almost no visible details left, and many of its structural elements were incorrect. So I used gray tones to conceal and correct the flawed structure, then applied bold black lines to define the overall silhouette. Finally, I added touches of white to enhance contrast and make the whole piece look cleaner and more defined. #dragontattoos #dragon #tattoo #coveruptattoos #freehandtattoo #tatted #armtattoo #houstontattoos

Traditional old-school style phoenix. The client wanted to cover up an old tattoo. More elements will be added later to make the overall piece look fuller and more complete. #tattoo #tattooed #traditionaltattoo #traditionaltattooartist #blacktattoo #blacktattooart #backtattoo #phoenix #phoenixtattooartist

really love this theme. I want my entire arm to feature various fairies as the main subject. The colors don’t need to be too bright. I’d like the fairies to be visible from different angles and positions, so the overall layout is very important. I’m really looking forward to seeing the finished result. #armtattoo #armtattoos #tattoo #designtattoo #linetattoo #linetattoos #colortattoo #tattooed #houstontattoo #houstontattoos

Inspired by the myth of Medusa — this black and grey piece by @assassintattoo_rick brings the legend to life with a balance of strength, beauty, and darkness. Every detail tells a story of power and transformation beneath the surface. #MedusaTattoo #MythologyTattoo #BlackAndGreyTattoo #RealismTattoo #AssassinTattoo #TattooArt #HoustonTattoo

As the body’s structure determines what truly suits human visual aesthetics, choosing a tattoo design isn’t just about placing an image randomly on the skin. Instead, it’s about selecting and positioning it in a way that complements your body’s shape. Doing so makes the tattoo appear as if it is naturally integrated with your body, becoming one cohesive whole. #tattoo #flowertattoo #flowertattoos #girltattoo #linetattoo #houstonttattooartist #tattooed #butterflytattoo

Two days in a row—my chest was pretty sore during the process, but the final result looks amazing. Looking forward to working together again next time. #tattoo #blacktattoo #sketchtattoo #chicanotattoo #tatted #chesttattoo #chesttattoos #houstontattoos #instattoo

A full Japanese-style sleeve built on tradition, flow, and power. The koi swims upstream through crashing waves — a symbol of resilience, determination, and transformation. Bold peonies bloom across the arm, balancing strength with beauty, while deep blacks and layered textures give the piece weight, depth, and longevity. Every scale, every petal, every wave is designed to move with the body, telling a story that only gets stronger with time.

Revisions and additions completed. The upper arm was a cover-up and rework. The design was hand-drawn according to the client’s request. The entire piece was done using round needles, and most of the photos show the healed results. #traditional #traditionaltattoo #tattoo #colortattoo #armtattoo #coveruptattoo #finishtattoo #houstontattoos
