Sample flash from the wall.
Every drawing on this page is original sample flash made for this demo. A real studio shows healed photos of its own clients here, with their permission, labelled by artist and date.
Sample flash, not client photos. These drawings show each artist's style. Each sheet starts as a violet stencil and inks in as you scroll, the way a design goes from stencil to skin.

What a real gallery holds
Healed work tells the truth.
-
Healed photos, not only fresh ones
Fresh tattoos look their sharpest on day one. Photos at 6 weeks or more show how the work really heals.
-
Every photo has an artist and a date
So you can see who did it, and how recent it is.
-
Shared with permission
Clients agree to every photo. Faces are cropped unless they ask otherwise.
-
Filtered by style and artist
The same filter you see above, built on the studio's own site so the work lives with the studio, not only on Instagram.
