Tattoos

A tatto is a body modification, People get tattoos for a variety of reasons: to identify themselves with a religious or social group, to adorn their bodies, as protective symbols, or as ongoing art and social projects.

Whatever the reason is a tattoo is always going to be a very personal and intimate way of expression. 

My art work  had the oportunity and  the honour of being part of somebody's life story and I could not feel more satisfied with the result of my work being able to convey and create empathy .

Here I am sharing the photographs of the process from sketch to tattoo.

It was the first time that I painted a musical instrument and I loved the  experience.

Here are couple of pictures of the process:
