This surrealist piece titled Complexity of the Mind.

Complexity of the Mind - by David Cote

What a great title. We’re not so good with words so if the burden of naming this piece fell to us, it’d probably get some non-creative descriptive moniker like Space Hula Hoop Necklace or just Space Face. Actually the last one was pretty catchy. (Photo: David Cote)

These awesome piano keys.

Piano Keys Tattoo by Miami Inksligner

Looks great from this angle but what about straight on or from the opposite angle? We’re curious. Amazing work. (Photo: Miami Inkslinger)

This sketch-style port hole.

Port Hole Tattoo by Felipe Mello

Not knocking this piece as it’s one of our favorites, but what’s going on with the big smudge that starts in the water and extends through the port hole? It almost looks as if this piece was done on paper and someone accidentally smeared it before it had time to dry. (Photo: Felipe Mello)



This artistic arrow.

This dotwork dagger tattoo.

Dotwork Dagger Tattoo by Lauren Marie Sutton

This fantastic dotwork dagger features a mandala clenched fist for a handle. Maybe Lauren should be designing knives and daggers instead of tattoos. (Photo: Lauren Marie Sutton)
