Dot Work

Posted by Brando85 on 08.19.11Australia

G'Day Mike

I thought i would get on and ask if you have seen much of the dot style tattoos aka pointerism. here is a link

http://www.inkatattoos.co.uk/tattoos/jonny/black_and_grey/dot_arm_3/6/1/3/1/206

The reason i ask is because i think it would be a cool concept to do a portrait in this style by grouping more dots together for the darker tones and spreading them out for lighter tones and i guess still using lighter and darker inks as well.

Basically i was looking at these pics and thought i would ask your opinion and if you can see the idea im trying to put across just from another artists point of view.

Cheers
Brando From Aus
