Like most tattooers, Orville works from some very specific categories of subject matter. What is interesting, however, is how he combines, illustrates, and tattoos those subjects. This is the crux of creative tattoo design, the exploration and discovery of how to compose, style, and render elements with seemingly endless variation. Approaching each realism tattoo he does with an illustrative process, Orville uses his favorite elements like the ones in this set to make reality more interesting by arranging objects from visually distinct view points.
In Orville’s Toolkit, you’ll find the stamp brushes to further your exploration into how seemingly ordinary objects and imagery can be combined in new and meaningful ways. The dynamic perspectives Orville chose to render each design gives you a unique perspective on how to solve complex tattoo composition problems by visualizing everyday subjects in novel ways.
Neo-traditional skeletons and birds, with wing variations, are made animated and expressive with gesture and a sense of movement. Hands and anatomical hearts, as well as roses, leaves, and stems, can be used to add classic realism elements to your designs.
Orville also included a wide selection of art tool stamps in the set, featuring markers, brushes, and pencils, as well as coil tattoo machines, needle cartridges, ink cap and bottles. Again, each elements is presented from a dynamic perspective, encouraging you to see the tools of the trade in a new way.
New to Tattoo Smart sets, Orville created a selection of linework and shaded background flow elements that create a nice area to place designs in, and give depth to your work. For more complicated multi-dimensional designs, ornamental and mandala cutout stamps can be used as background or transitional elements.
Finally, Orville supplied a range of complex geometric shapes that are interesting enough to be used as design elements on their own or as templates to help you construct complex shapes in perspective.
Orville’s Toolkit, like all Tattoo Smart stamp sets, puts new ways to explore tattoo design in your digital toolkit.
