A piece built around intensity, movement, and contrast. 🖤
Focused on keeping the portrait sharp while letting the surrounding elements flow naturally with the arm, using negative space to give the darker sections room to breathe.
Loved how this one came together. More to come on this project. 🩸

Anubis sleeve I had the chance to create during my Calgary trip.
A full Egyptian-inspired piece built around realism, contrast, negative space, and the natural flow of the arm. Every element was designed to connect with the next while keeping enough breathing room for the details to stand out.
I flew 6 hours from Toronto to Calgary for this project, and after 4 full days of tattooing, seeing the final result come together was incredibly rewarding.
I’m genuinely so happy with how this one turned out. The final result is exactly the kind of balance I love creating in my work, strong contrast, clean negative space, and a design that feels powerful without becoming overcrowded.
Beyond the tattoo, I’ll always remember the conversations and the time spent during those 4 days 🙏

Calgary has been so good to me. Good people, beautiful nature, and a lot of memories I’ll be taking with me. 🏔️🌲
Hanuman in progress on the inner forearm. We couldn’t finish the piece today due to some shoulder mobility issues, but the foundation is coming together beautifully. We’ll continue in the next session and bring the rest of the details to life. 🙏🏽🖤

this Egyptian god sleeve is all about creating a strong flow between each element with realism and depth coming together as one piece.
Still in progress from my Calgary guest spot, with more to come.
A little behind the scenes of what happens beyond the tattoo.
Real conversations, real moments with my clients, and the tattoo captured exactly as it looks in natural light. No studio tricks, no heavy editing, just an iPhone capturing the process as it really is.
For me, the experience is just as important as the final piece. 🖤

This is the healed result of my Lord Shiva piece, showing how the details, contrast, and depth settle into the skin over time. No filters, no hiding the reality of healed work, just the tattoo as it naturally looks

Healed Lord Shiva 🙏🏽
There’s something special about seeing a piece settle into the skin and truly come alive. The contrast, the details, and the calm energy of Shiva all coming together beautifully with time.

Realism has always been about more than copying a reference. It’s about creating depth, emotion, and a composition that breathes.
With this samurai piece, I leaned heavily into contrast and negative space, letting the skin become just as important as the ink. Every detail was placed with intention, allowing the textures, shadows, and highlights to flow naturally.
Sometimes what you leave untouched is what makes the artwork truly come alive.

Tattoo i did at @inkthe6ixtorontotattooexpo
Seeing my work a week into the healing process is always rewarding. The skin is still recovering, but the tattoo is already showing the depth, contrast, and intention behind every detail 🙏🙏
