Illustration Friday - Tattoo



The hula girl is pretty much the quintessential tattoo isn't it? That or a skull on fire with a snake going through its eyes.

This piece, by the way, started without a sketch and I went straight to color which is very uncommon of my work. It could be better but, Oh well, this is just for practice....

If I got a tattoo it would probably be of Hervé Villechaize of Fantasy Island fame.... A tattoo of 'Tattoo' if you will.

Funny! And if you did get a tat with Herve, would we need to call it a "tat-two"?
