Brains!!!!!

This is cool! Custom create for a customer that lost partial vision on an eye, due to a brain tumor.

Peter Paul Rubens, tattoo.

Wow, I think that this is the toughest tattoo that I have done.

Cali Bear tattoo done by Art Gallardo

This came out really cool. A California outline with a fierce bear on the inside, and a negative star showing were Los Angeles would be.

Bleeding Roses tattoo done by Art Gallardo

This image comes from a Salvador Dali, painting, called The Bleeding Roses. Being a huge Dali fan, i was really exited to do this tattoo. I had to free hand draw this image on to the hand with some tattoo pens. Then i went to town, mixing all the different tones of Red. Awesome piece. 

Skull and Roses Tattoo done by Art Gallardo

Done on a half of a chest, a skull with roses. I think that this was one of my first Color skulls. About a week earlier i had just finished a color drawing of a skull. This made the tattoo easy to do, just time consuming.

Marijuana done by Art Gallardo Tattoo

This is a Marijuana smile now and cry later. I like the "cry later" because it looks like it is coughing with the smoke. 

Little Monster done by Art Gallardo Tattoo

So, this customer comes in with an image of a skull/bubble gum. And says, "i am the biggest Lady Gaga fan, this is an image from her merchandise. but could you make it better like a little more 3D? My customer was very happy with how it came out. The only down side is that i had to listen to Lady Gaga almost the entire tattoo.
