I started this religious sleeve on Rozzy back in 2009. It all started with a black and grey piece of Christ's hand with a nail through it on his forearm. We had some fun watching this sleeve come to life. The lion represents Jesus and the lantern represents God's light. The filigree adds kind of an old holy Catholic feel while tying it all together. On the inner portion of this arm lies the dove tattoo I did as well as the stone rose with the eye ball (look through my gallery to find these other tattoos). Most of what you see here is healed. This sleeve is interesting in that it has so many varying styles; including realism/portrait, graphic new school and a bit of traditional, a bit of biomech, and black and grey realism.
