At City of Ink we take pride in "Following Dreams" and inspiring the next person... A few months ago me & Artist, Kevin Harp (Mr.Soul) visited a school and spoke with the students.... This is something i do for my own personal reasons....my mother was my main role model in my life.. But I also had great male role models... Ray Mapp, Billy G, Bro.Musa, and Mr.Bailey from Asheville High....These men helped me become the man I am today and I'm thankful... So I follow my heart and try to do what they did for me growing up. If you want to try to change the world your in.. Start with the city you live in... Inspire your city... If you would like for me to speak at your school please call: 404-644-1912 or miyasart@gmail.com

Lastnight in Houston, Texas....

Step 1: freehand the design directly on the skin using sharpie markers.... Following the natural shape of his arm...








Step 2: outline & solid blacks are finished...I used a bold outline to make the main subject matters pop out more....





Step 3: soft smooth shading to finish this piece up.... This was a fun session.. It was his first piece of body art... It was an honor I was picked to do it... Thank you
