FEATURED WORKS

Neotraditional valkyrie tattoo
From old Norse Valkyrja or "Chooser of the Slain", the Valkyrie is a solid choice these days, especially if you like the strong illustrative elements seen in neotraditional tattoos.

Black and grey skull and snake
A timeless classic, the skull tattoo will forever be a staple in the tattoo community. This illustrative black and grey piece includes a snake, which is a common pairing in the modern era of tattoo design.

illustrative Owl and moon tattoo
We enjoy all of Ryan's animal of designs, but we are especially fond of the sizing and placement of this black and grey owl and moon calf piece.
