SIZE: 11x15in
MEDIUM: Pen
This piece was inspired by my home town- Portland, Oregon. The art of tattooing is very big in Portland and a lot of people can be seen on the street flashing their body art.
I also wanted to incorporate a lot of different aspects and styles. Things that can be found in the photo include a mermaid, superman symbol, black widow, rose, paisley, dream catcher, snake, bones, city, cobwebs, skull, cherries and so much more.
I also included the quote, "The hour of departure has arrived, and we go our ways--I to die and you to live. Which is the better, only God knows," by Socrates below the right breast. I think that this quote is very meaningful and can be translated a lot of different ways. Therefore I included it to invoke thought and add depth to the overall meaning of the piece.
This piece is not framed but is a standard size, therefore it would be easy to find a frame in any craft store.
