Tattoo drawing on practice skin.
New Extended Drawing
Pippa Extended Drawing; Reclining Kick.
Underneath is the canvass- prepped and ready to paint.
Tattoo Life Drawing
The life drawing room with Diane modelling. There was no underdrawing, worked directly with the tattoo machine. Very raw at this stage – will work on it some more and re-post. Haven’t quite got to grips with my new shader machine yet, but it is starting to make a bit more sense. Loving this totally new media!
Tattoo copy of Paula Rego drawing
All very new and although the drawing is overworked in areas, this was an exercise in treating the tattoo machine (and practice skin) as traditional drawing media….. and it was fun!

Is it me or is there a spooky resemblence between this figure and Nick Cave?Nick Cave and Paula Rego in one go- made my day!
Copy of Saint Dymphna. Difficult to retain fluid and amimated mark making, characteristc of Regos draughtsmanship, while retaining accuracy. Would like to have returned and copied a number of times until the movements felt more gestural and less controlled and contrived
