A six and a half hour piece (full day session) photo taken straight after completed session. Only one passing. The first piece of an ongoing full sleeve concept. Theme: overcoming struggle, the emotion(s), the darkness and hardship to reveal the new person from within. A difficult theme however, very rewarding for me the artist and most importantly the client. #blackandgray #blackandgreytattoo #blackandgreyrealism #realism #portraiture #portrait #surrealism #realistic #inked #ink #illustrative #forearm
