Botanical Stencil Tattoos

Rit Kit Allows Consumers to Transform Foliage into Body Ink Designs

— May 3, 2016 — Art & Design
European artist Rit Kit offers consumers the opportunity to place realistic botanical stencils on their skin with these body ink designs that perfectly replicate and mimic the look of foliage. The designs are rendered by dipping real flowers and leaves into ink and placing the botanical onto the body, to create a stencil that can be used to mimic the texture of the plant. The end result is a realistic rendering of the foliage permanently tattooed on the body.

Rit Kit's ink stencilling technique allows consumers to obtain a true to form rendering of the plant they want to have forever engraved on their body that goes beyond trusting the artist's own drawing abilities. The inking technique ensures the plant is to scale, size and texture while maintaining the realism of the piece.
