We reached out to Jesse and asked him some questions about his work. Firstly, we were eager to find out more about the inspiration behind creating unique 3D tattoos. The artist shared with us: “When I started tattooing, I mostly worked in realism. Back then most of us would just tattoo on the flat parts and add filler to fill in the gaps. I thought it would be cool to use depth and perspective to try to sculpt the body and utilize the fact that it is a moving, living canvas instead of fighting it. When I started experimenting with 3D tattoos, I was thinking of the skin as the top layer and working inward from there. Geometric shapes became a natural border to work within, and it allowed me to use classic tattoo principles with a twist that adds depth in a unique way.” More info: Instagram | jesserix.com For tattoo-specific inspiration, there were a lot of amazing artists that I loved, but I really admired Josh Duffy and Victor Portugal’s work. Their tattoos showed me how powerful negative space can be to create depth and dimension. Guy Aitchison was also someone whose work I admired. I loved how he could use different line weights and shading techniques to create flow and dimension. I wanted to find a way to incorporate that but with my own spin on it.” Follow Bored Panda on Google News! Follow us on Flipboard.com/@boredpanda! Please use high-res photos without watermarks Ooops!
