Realism

Black-and-Grey Realism Tattoos in Central Oregon

Realism in black-and-grey is about translating light, depth, and texture into ink. Done well, it lives on the skin like a photograph that was always there.

Realism takes time. Davi's realism sessions are built around getting depth right — the soft falloff from highlight to shadow, the way fabric folds, the way fur catches light. References matter; high-resolution, well-lit photos give the piece something to lock onto. Plan on a longer session, or multiple sessions for larger work. The result reads from across the room.
