Geisha vs Centaurus Mythology

Japanese and Greek Mythology pencil drawing. Geisha and Centaurus meeting in the same dimension, the outcome of this scene, it will be up to the viewer. That’s the beauty about looking at a piece of art, it’s to interpret it in your own personal way. The way I interpret it, is that anything is possible. I have been learning about 4th dimension, and that’s where we go when we dream, in that dimension everything is possible. So I try to achieve that sort of idea, when I draw. Thank you

Butch Tattooing in Leeds

It’s with pleasure, that we are going to have Butch guesting in our studio in November 25-26. Butch was the first Tattoo Artist who I worked with who could draw, who was an artist. He knew how to run a tattoo studio, as I don’t believe a tattoo studio can be run for real if the owner is not a tattoo artist, as all they care about is the money. Butch only had real artists in his studio, I still respect him to this day as he taught me how to be an artist. I didn’t draw enough when i first met Butch, and he made me understand how important it’s to draw as a tattoo artist. You will not be able to deal with the human body if you don’t draw, and as a tattoo artist, you will have to deal with the human body some day, having to link an image to another image, between 2 parts of the body. So I have time for people who are genuine, that’s why I’m looking forward to see him. A lot of artists who worked with Butch gave up on him, as they couldn’t cope with him being tough, however, I’m glad I went until the end and it worked out, I feel like I went to the army and I passed the test. So see you soon Butch.

Angel Sketch Book

Sometimes a simple sketch is satisfying to do, I usually add a lot of shading to my drawings, to give a realistic feel to it. However, illustration is the focus on the foundation shape, which it forms and enriches the basic shapes of real life or fantasy images. Usually when I tattoo angels, I make the most to use the angel wing to follow the customer body shape.

Genisha Sketch Work in Progress

I Love drawing and tattooing Genisha. They have such a positive meaning, and i like customising the way they look, and making a bit of my own style. i have a new page on Intagram/louissantostattoouk, its called Louis Santos Mythology. In this page i intend to create my own world of Mythology with Tattoos and art. Thank you
