Tony's Hand


This post is sort of a mash up in the timeline of events. We'd started this tattoo - on Hell or High Water's distinguished owner, Tony Barton's hand - one day, before both of our appointments showed up, but then kept getting interrupted by people coming in, deliveries, etc. Just like how the commas kept interrupting the smooth flow of that last sentence. Haha. So anyway, I'd wanted to do one single photo spread so I waited a few weeks later till we actually finished it. Enjoy!


The design is a complimentary scene to go along with his other hand, done by Donn Davis several years ago, of an eyeball, a wing, and a broken pencil. Here we have a paintbrush and an eye, with waves to go with the sleeve background and some scales and leaves for effect.



This is where we'd stopped the first time...  and of course no time for breaks, right to work we both went.


And then a few weeks later, touch ups here and there, and presto - here it is complete!
