Recently, tattooer Brandon Schultheis came back in for a final tightening session on his sleeve that I had previously posted. It was originally completed in three epic 2-day sessions, spaced about a month apart, and here's the updated version, freshly healed.  It's an abstract interpretation of evolution from negative to positive, using a variety of graphic devices to achieve this symbolism, such as texture, color, and dark/light relationships.
