Wow amazing!
That’s the word of a real artist! How long did you sit on this?

Thanks all 🙂

I did 8 days straight about 70 hours.

Maybe it was a polite way of saying he doesn’t want to do it. maybe it was too simple?

Does to me too 🙂

Hi Wardy

Nice piece for your nan.
My grandad used to make them as toys when he was a boy/teenager in Russia.

I think they are called Matryoshka (nesting) but sometimes ‘babushka’ which meant woman (in traditional sense).

He’s OK dude, but not great.

You have such an amazing collection of top artists in England, I’m surprised you don’t take advantage of it. Take a trip to Frith St and get tattooed by the best in the world.

They all look like the same person has done the tattoos lol

Same styles?
