Drawings for "Inked" tattoo parlor...

There are only two of us in the studio at Pacific Home. Jamie, one of the three owners and lead designer, and then myself. One of our first projects was working on the tattoo parlor for the show "Inked". It was great fun to work on a tattoo parlor, especially one where they wanted something different from every other parlor. Although it is a chain, they have one in Las Vegas, we still got to fulfill a lot of our own visions.
The colors were supposed to be in tones of Aqua, Black and Silver, but ended up having to stick with Red, Black and Silver...so we did Red leather chairs, a black and white zebra grain laminated cashwrap and black concrete floor. We enlarged ancient Polynesian tattoo designs and adhered them to recycled plexi glass panels we found and had them lit from below...
