Abi had some old scars on their right arm that she wanted covered up, so she scheduled a consultation with me and told me their ideas for the project.
She was thinking about using botanicals, peony flowers in particular, and possibly a snake. She brought in print out examples of their preferred imagery to show me, which I love-- makes my job so much easier.
The snake will stay gray and the peonies, which will do the main job of camouflaging the scars, will be in color, which will make the blossoms pop off their arm.
Here are some photos of the drawing (gray shading and half started color version), the very freshly tattooed outline and gray shading stages.
