Siren

My client sent me through a drawing that another artist had done. It depicted a mermaid with a nautical scene - ship, waves etc. It also had roses and a lantern, that didn't seem to fit. Which meant there was no running theme, for such a large detailed drawing. So I stripped back the ideas and made this. A siren, which is/was the course of death for many lusty sea voyagers. The tattoo has been started, it will take a couple more sessions before it is finished!
