tattoo design

A water crystal tattoo design, and the tattoo inked by Diamond D:

awake. aware. alive

I wanted to see what a dark text on a build up of white paint background would look like, in answer to the previous large canvas (see next blog post).  This was a make up of elements I played with in answer to the question 'What do I truly desire?'.

new work: combination of 'The proper crossing of lines' and 'The slowing down of time' glyphs

This acrylic on canvas piece is a combination of the glyphs seen on the fish eagle and kudu paintings, built up in layers of reds, with matt and gloss blacks on top: lots of mind maths finished off with peace and harmony found in the final sigil.  Thank you Jean-Michel Basquiat for the permission.
