Half Sock Geometry
Kenji Alucky (of Black Ink Power in Berlin) is doing a guest spot at the recently featured German tattoo studio Scratcher’s Paradise, which is of course staffed by anything but scratchers. This amazing geometric dotwork tattoo with a little mandala in the middle of it is quite stunning, especially because right now the toenails are temporarily discoloured from the tattoo ink staining them. I think I might take this as inspiration to start painting my toenails were this my foot.
An eye is at the focal point of this Thomas Hooper geometric tattoo. The circles draw the viewer’s attention to the eye tattoo.
Actually, Facebook Friends Tattoo Was A Hoax
I thought that “social tattoo” looked a little too shiny. The tattoo artist who was thanked in the credits of the YouTube video showing a woman getting 152 of her closest Facebook friends inked on her arm has informed a Dutch newspaper that the video was a hoax:
Rotterdam tattoo artist Dex Moelker eventually came clean on the Telegraaf website, admitting the tattoo and video is an advertising stunt.‘It is a try out tattoo, a transfer, that washes off in a couple of days,’ Moelker, who has a tattoo shop in Rotterdam, told the paper. It took a couple of hours to apply the transfer not the 30 hours the video claimed to produce the real tattoo.
