Hummingbird w/Botanicals Cover Up

A fellow artist, Mercy and I share the same language, so talking with her was super easy when she came in for her initial consultation. Bright and articulate, she brought printouts of imagery that she liked and followed my instructions to the letter, which I love. She says, "Like many, after years of carrying a tattoo that I no longer resonated with, finding Victoria was such a relief. Her design process is thorough and her work is nothing but consistent, clean, and vibrant. She turned something I got used to hiding into the most stunning & colorful hummingbird piece surrounded by juicy blackberries and dogwood flowers!

This placement, centered at the high back of my neck and top of my shoulders looks fantastic, and the fact that she pulled it all together in just a consult and two sessions is wildly cool to me. Victoria is truly a queen of her craft and I feel so lucky to be wearing her art! This one’s staying with me for life, and I couldn’t be more proud to show it off. I’m absolutely in love with this gorgeous hummingbird with florals and so grateful for the time, care, and attention Victoria puts into her work! It really came to life and I’m beyond happy with it!"

Here are some photos of the drawing, before, outline and gray shading and very fresh final color stages.
