You ever heard of Brody Polinsky? He's … epic. https://www.instagram.com/brody_polinsky/?hl=en

Interesting, but totally not what I had in mind! Alex Grey's/Tool's art is more transcendental, psychedelic, anatomical, and repeating, etc, and much less runic(?). I'm really digging this for some reason, for example: https://www.alexgrey.com/art/transcendental/the-great-turn

Oh daaaammmmmnnnn. Yeah not at all the same

@Oaktavia thank you! yeah man did them back to back. Love yours!
-
lolol
Okay so those tattoos are SICK @endo. When did you have those done?
-
First one I got about two years ago in Jerusalem. The motives are ancient coptic. Tattoos play a significant role in the history of the coptic church. It was done by Wassim Razzouk, who's family is doing these tattoos for more than 700 years. All motives are at least 500 years old. I'm not a copt, but my christian (lutheran) faith plays an important role in my life. Now, that I'm an old fart, I thought it's a good (and stylish) way to embody (?) it.

Well, I think they're beautiful man. I really like simple, clean designs like that. Really good work on picking an artist with such an amazing history/background, too.

@henry_david thank you, man!

@steelworker it's all about being decent and loving people, isn't it?
-
they're beautiful tattoos @endo , some look like 17th century gravestones in New England.
-
I am with @henry_david and @steelworker …really nice work @endo !!! As a fellow old guy getting tattoo'd later in life, I dig it!
-
Haven't posted my own here. Figured since these were finished up recently might as well post now. Kari Barbi worked on my upper left arm over twenty years ago. Didn't really plan to do the forearms back then, but of course that changed
-
whoa @Bums_Fan beautiful work! -
Fresh peony on my shoulder that I picked up at a convention yesterday
-
@endo Absolutely loving your pieces, really dig the simple and clear designs.
@Bums_Fan Excellent sleeves. As you might expect if you go back a page or 2, I'm a little biased towards the Poseidon arm in particular.
@LewisStonehouse I like it - it complements the other work on that arm a lot. Did you plan on getting it done before you went, or was it a spur of the moment thing while looking through flash?
-
Sorry @endo didnt mean to dis you. Clearly those arms are sick af. I love clean black line work. Subtle and understated. I’m at the point now where I have a lot of filler spaces and don’t want to break the bank in random places so that’s the type of stuff I’ve been thinking about.
