Illustrative Chest Piece Tattoos

The chest reads like a panel composition. Symmetric, central, visible whenever the shirt comes off, and the muscle structure underneath gives the artist a natural framing to work with. Pieces here tend to have a clear focal point with balanced wing or banner work flowing outward across the pectorals.
