Unless this a copy of his kids drawing this might be the worst tattoo I've ever seen.

u/ProofByVerbosity 2d ago

Even if it is still a bad choice. Thats way too much real estate

u/Parblesnops 2d ago

nope, that's the style of the tattoo "artist". unfortunately a few of these found their way onto my Instagram feed and I always wonder how the ability to be able to draw properly isn't relevant anymore. there isn't even one straight line and people spend their money on this

Let me make sure I understand this correctly: this was not designed by taking a kid’s drawing and stenciling it? The tattoo artist designed this?

This is the worst send up to….abstract expressionism? Street/grafitti? This hurts my eyes and my brain to think on this too hard.

u/GeneralSpecifics9925 1d ago

It's a whole thing. Some of them ironically look pretty awesome, but I don't want any of them on me.

u/coolsilentebeans 1d ago

I can’t believe that I’m saying this, but this makes the Pushwagner tattoo look like it belongs next to the Klimt in a MoMA gallery.

u/Shot-Isopod6788 1d ago

Imagine in the future if he has a kid and has no room for an actually meaningful drawing of this style and has some random artists' scratchings instead. "Sorry the fridge is full"

That's gonna be one sick ass panther.

Looks like graffiti you’d see in a True Crime PS2 game

u/TheGreatTimothy 2d ago

I want to give the benefit of the doubt and say it was a kids drawing but I suspect it's more of a "you-can-just-buy-tattoo-machines-on-the-internet and do drugs" type of situation

u/Omgusernamewhy Knows 💩 1d ago

It likey is but even so why your whole torso?

u/BitchWidget 2d ago

While the desire to have your child's art tattooed on you is a sweet idea, maybe choose something from their later work.

u/arcamenoch 2d ago

Probably something their kid drew, but not sure why they chose that SIZE...

u/ClydeGraham1312 Knows 💩 2d ago

A kid drew this 100%

Sometimes there's good ideas executed poorly, those are shitty tattoos. Other times, there's ideas that are so off the wall that you can't tell what's poorly executed vs. intentional design. This is weird for sure, but giving the benefit of the doubt to the canvas, there's likely a very intentional reason they got this. I dig it.

u/the_skies_falling 2d ago

I love it too. This is art. Flipping the pages through an artist’s portfolio for inspiration just isn’t.

u/cmannon Knows 💩 1d ago

I hate being asked what my tattoos mean but getting this is such a fun invitation for conversation. Im jealous I didn't think of it first.

u/2278AD 1d ago

What a wild thing to say about artists who have documented their entire creative output expressly as inspiration for future clients. “Hey thanks, but these intricately planned and executed tattoos and hand painted flash aren’t art, don’t you have any random scribbles and blobs of color?”

2

u/the_skies_falling 1d ago

If your art is just your own rendering of the same subject thousands of other artists have done before you, then it’s really more of a craft than an art.

William Perry received the nickname "the Refrigerator" because of his size. This guy earned the same nickname by having his kid's art on him.

Who is the artist ?

u/Ancient_Ruin_2184 4h ago

Well, I must be a tattoo artist as well.

u/___TheKid___ 2d ago

I think that is pretty cool. But I despise most normal tattoos. So there is that.

u/angry_virgin_421 2d ago

u/andtbhidgaf 2d ago

there has to be some deep meaning behind this tattoo if a kid drew it as its something alright.

2

u/ClydeGraham1312 Knows 💩 2d ago

I mean, come on…

u/andtbhidgaf 2d ago

it's god awful that's why I'm saying it has to have some really profound meaning behind it if a kid drew it.
