I love how abstract tattoo is giving clues to people to view. But the concept is defined by the person who owns it.

I’m here to bring these ideas to life✍🏻

A silent manifesto for her inner turmoils. We let it flow in the music that she plays🫧

•••

This is a mixed composition combined with my flash design from ‘Emotion Archives’, and custom flow extension.

‘Emotion Archives’ is a flash series that documented fragments of emotion. Each frame is a silent visual form with open translations, for people who resonate with it.

More editions available on my highlight ‘Concept’.🤍

The only problem with freehand is I always get too hyped with the real sketch on skin. So it often ends up with a bigger canvas (Oopsie!)

But we both agreed the jellyfish fits in nicer this way. Not too cluttered, not too spaced. She’s so open with lots of trust! Very happy with the final work.

More results coming in Part.2! 🔨

One of the references that Ben shared with me for his tattoo, and I really like it.

It’s the poem ‘To be Alive’ by Gregory Orr.

To be alive: not just the carcass
but the spark.
That’s crudely put, but. . .

If we’re not supposed to dance,
why all this music?

—

So to be in the present moment. Please enjoy this video with sound on.

How we recreate the space to not make tattoos look disjointed 🌿

We added the new lily pads (with a very long stem!). So it can grow around her small tattoos, she collected over the years.

The stem is now rooted from her past memories, also grow with them, up to the Now.

How could we not love a moving flow like this. I wish photo can show how seamless it hugs over the shoulder.

Save this for your next tattoo inspiration.

Swipe to remove B&W filter 📸

Love how the B&W is giving new layer of stillness to the eyes, showing the purest shapes / forms, without distraction from the colours.

It continues on the other arm side, may make another post later!

Dancing with the past self, like these lily pads. New growth starts now 🌱

This is one of the few projects I worked over someone’s work (with my client’s consent🤍). It is not a cover-up idea, just a sweet detail wrapping up her other collections on the same arm.

Sometimes all we need is just a little push. I finally took the courage to pick up this method again.

Not the best pens I’d say, but thanks to this purchase and my client for his 100% trust!

If you’re looking into a freehand experience, I accept abstract flow projects now.

The only (good) footages I got for this forearm wrap.

I wish other sides of her arm were recorded too, BUT i forgot to film the starts😂 You know, sometimes these things happen and it’s okay!

Hope you’ll still get a glimpse of the placement idea from her movements🤍

‘It is about finding my roots that was once forgotten.’ 🌸

12 years ago, I moved to the UK did not know what life will lead me, like hopping on a never-stopping train. However… Since then I dedicated myself into the creative world. I travel everywhere in this journey but mostly away from home.

And here in Stockholm I met Linnea for her meaningful project! 🇸🇪 It really got me to think how far I’ve gone.

…

How do you honour your roots?

It’s not always about the place, but the people we spent time with🤝

These flowers are carefully selected by my client. Marking her 2 homes where she comes from and moves to, a best friend and herself.

All come along like floral charms in a flow to celebrate her new journey 🌷

Never realised how often I made design to look less aggressive than it may sound💭

Until this Burning Iris project. I had a vision of a burning incense when I drew it. It’s one small twist in mind, I absolutely love the result!

Dedicated this 1st tattoo to Khadija’s sister 🫧

‘If we compare life’s connections to bubbles, I’m fully aware they can burst at any moment, so I now try to connect and maintain bonds. My way of easing the regret that lingers from the time I let previous bubbles drift away.’

— My fav line from her email 🤍
