The work of the Lippo Tattoo studio will make people gasp, sometimes in wonder, other times in fear and even disgust. That is because Lippo Tattoo's permanent ink art is so realistically rendered that the casual observer won't be able to suppress their surprise when they think they see a giant spider or beautiful butterfly on the shoulder of one of their friends.
Based in Frosinone, Italy, the Lippo Tattoo studio, on a very basic level, uses shadows to give each tattoo that deceptive quality. Not only does the Lippo Tattoo studio base their work in reality, they also do so in surreality. Their portfolio also boasts torn maps and gaping teethed wounds with wolves snarling out of them.
