Color realism tattoo · Laurent Alba
Apex
A blue and turquoise shark tattoo on the chest, set against an orange and yellow background. Color realism by Laurent Alba.
Composition and placement
The shark crosses the chest on a diagonal, with its open mouth as the focal point. Cool blue tones in the animal contrast with the warm background. The detail photograph gives a closer view of the eye, teeth, and shading.
