Color realism uses tonal transitions, contrast and colour relationships to bring depth and character to a tattoo. A portrait, animal, natural subject or imagined scene can become a composition with a vivid, expressive presence.

At NEXT in Paris, we begin with your references and discuss the palette, scale and placement. Your artist will help identify which elements to emphasise and how to adapt the image for skin. For larger projects, we can discuss a plan across multiple sessions.
