Description
This is the line work of a Celtic tattoo flash sheet I am working on. This is my first shot at tattoo flash. I have a collection of flash in my tattoo/art room and wanted to try it. I have been watercoloring it and I have not watercolored since early high school, say 1987 or 1988?

I hate the tree and the harp, I liked them at the time, now...? I love the circle knot and the cross. These are just designs I found elsewhere and reproduced them and changed some of them up a bit to get the effect I wanted. Like the cross, I wanted it to look like old stone. It is the only thing that turned out great in watercolor. The rest of it will need lots of work.

Colored [link]

paper: watercolor paper
ink: Dynamic's black tattoo ink in a Rapidograph pen #2
(a trick I learned from some of my tattooer friends)
(I also love to tattoo with this ink, so bold)
