Archangel Michael

This striking thigh piece, done over 3 consecutive days to start a designer sleeve, features Saint Michael the Archangel, wielding a spear and holding a crown of thorns. The inclusion of fine lines and script makes this a dynamic example of a designer style composition. The post gives natural flow to the piece, and Grease is cognizant of the light source, which starts from the upper left and fades into shadow down the figure. The intricate details and shadow work on the armor, cloth, and wings show Grease's technical expertise. The script at the bottom, Revelation 12:12 reads, “Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them.” — tattoo by Grease at Eden Body Art Studios.
