Leg Panel IX

A departure from Deanna's typical aesthetic, this piece, done on Eden co-owner Nick, features cool tones, rather than her classic warm, baroque-inspired colors. The drapery (much of which was freehanded for flow) and chrysanthemum are both novel additions to Deanna's portfolio. The facial expression of the figure makes for a truly ethereal aesthetic, and the warm accents in the figure and flower compliment the blues of the overall palette. This piece was started at the Icons and Prodigies Tattoo Convention in Venice, Italy, where Deanna was one of the 300 artists from across the world invited to participate. She was also one of the few selected to teach a seminar, her first in Europe. True to its name, this is one of the globe's most prestigious tattoo conventions. By Deanna James.
