Today’s tattoo of the day is this cool ornamental skull by James Kern. Kern is based out of Portland, Oregon, and best known for his colorful, out-of-the-box style combining elements of ornamental tattooing with fantasy and illustrative realism. Today’s tattoo features bright pinks, purples and pale blues highlighted by gold filigree coloring to make a very traditional image stand out and show a softer side. Kern is from a family of tattooers—his twin brother Tim Kern is another famous tattooist—so we expect nothing but the best from James Kern. To see more of his amazing portfolio check out his artist page right here.
