Watercolour Portrait Tattoo
I drew more than a little inspiration for this Watercolour Portrait Tattoo from the Guy Denning series – “Pornography for Plutocrats, 2013”
Under normal circumstances I would shy away from copying another artists work without permission but as Denning originally intended to create a set of paintings so expensive that no one could ever afford it and then decided to make the three pieces in the series available to the public for free. I felt that I would be ok. Hopefully.
The three separate images follow a set of instructions and a statement from the artist, who suggests the viewer to print them out and hang the images on their favourite wall. So I did but first I added a bunch of my own ideas to it and then printed it onto stencil paper before finally tattooing it!
Here is a quote directly from Denning’s website: “If your very favourite wall happens to belong to your local high street bank then it will be up to you to explain your charitable wall-papering, as we all know that this kind of behaviour is very, very naughty and not at all to be promoted on the internet, twitter, facebook etc.” (Denning, guydenning.org).
