Black and Grey Half Sleeve Tattoo. I free handed the top half of this tattoo, and stenciled bottom half. Its a swallow, with a rose on top. Clock in the bottom half. I love working with black and grey realism tattoos. Its so relaxing, i love colour too, however, black and grey it’s easier to get in to a flow, and how it heals, as well, its just beaultiful, so i look forward to see this tattoo healed eventually.
