About Portraits Tattoos
Portrait tattoos capture the human face in ink — a parent, partner, hero or icon, rendered accurately enough to be unmistakably them. One of the most personal pieces, and one of the most technically demanding.
- Usually black & grey, where greywash sculpts the planes of a face
- A portrait specialist is a specific expert — look for a portfolio full of convincing faces
- Prioritize healed photos above all; over-worked skin muddies as it settles
- A high-resolution, well-lit reference is essential
- Needs room for detail — forearm, bicep, chest, thigh, back
