Tresoldi's series of structures beautifully blends a classical aesthetic with an avant-garde approach.

Artist Turns Quirky Line Drawings into Funny Tattoo Illustrations

Reminiscent of line drawings, the quirky creations of Sean Williams (better known as Sean from Texas) showcase the tattoo artist's distinctively simplistic approach to body art. Each inked illustration features comical and clever subject matter, conveying the unexpectedly unlimited possibilities of such simple tattoos. In his work, Sean from Texas shows a tendency toward outlandish and eccentric characters. Silly cats and stylized dogs repeatedly appear in his designs, as well as outspoken animated aliens and even a seemingly lonely ghost.
