Flash sheets: how a wall of drawings built a tradition

From dockside shops to today's studios, flash has always been how tattooers teach, trade and tip their hats to one another. We trace a century of swallows, roses and eagles.

About me

Neo-traditional colour and custom lettering in Maginhawa. I grew up drawing jeepney signage, so script and flames are home turf. Colour packing is my favourite part.
