Tattoos and other body mods
The Seldom Killer:
True, but then the transience opens up the opportunity to develop and change the artwork over time. It's a dimension that is rarely explored in tattooing.
For instance, I could see this piece evolving and shifting around the base points in a way that isn't available with coverups.
Lines:
They're definitely lovely, but I think I've heard somewhere that pointillist tattoos are difficult to do?

Having no sunlight on them kinda helps. An old friend of mine didn't have any done in this style, but even the ink she had gotten done years before was perfectly bright, because she didn't expose any part of her body with art on it to the evil day star.

Wow, any idea how long this took?
Active Madness:
Dot work is really incredible. I'd get a piece done entirely in it if it weren't for fading/bleeding issues. It would really lend itself to the style of 19th century book illustrations </geekout>
