Honored to make this piece for Emmanuel. Inspired by traditional graphic Mexican pottery designs; specifically the works #MataOrtiz. A homage to family and his roots. Thanks for being the nicest guy ever! #benvolt #blackwork #form8tattoo

Finished this large conceptual piece for Allison the runner. Aerodynamic chevrons to propel her forward. The essence of motion. Thanks for sitting like a badass! ❤️ #benvolt #blackwork #tattoo #tattoos #graphicdesign #form8tattoo #sanfrancisco

An abstract solar system for Mandy, and a futuristic crop circle inspired piece Guillaume. An important reminder that the work we tattooers do is rooted in connection, and that there are things larger outside ourselves, if only we choose to look. #benvolt #blackwork #form8tattoo

In progress. A bold geometric rib banger for Ramsey. Eventually to wrap up to the neck and flow down into a sleeve; organically reworking some older pieces as we go. Always evolving. Thanks for sitting like a beast, big guy! 💪 #benvolt #blackwork #form8tattoo
