The bird king people eater

By Sean Philips • Apr 28th, 2010 • Category: ModBlog

This interesting piece was only Jamie Mahood’s second attempt at realistic color work. To date she’s only been tattooing 2.5 years but her work definitely doesn’t seem like it came from a rookie artist. Perhaps that is due to the great tattoo lineage from which she learned. She apprenticed under Wes Grimm who is the great grandson of Bert Grimm. Jamie currently works at Suffer City Tattoo in Dallas, TX.

    I love Bosch, and this is from my favourite painting of his. This is awesome!

    This is breathtaking. Can’t wait to see what her tattoos look like with a few more years of experience.

    bosch “earthly delights” Painting was recently used as a section in a massive art show in london ontario
    where students would choose a specific place of the paint next to them selves in a full life self portrait, and items included to represent them all situated in a studio space. this image od the bird king eater was a favorite among the classes choice.

    She’s been a great person of interest lately for the work I want on my arms. I’m excited that she’s getting recognized.

    This is one of my favorite paintings, I adore Bosch! This is so well done too. I’d always wanted to get a tattoo from Earthly Delights but just couldn’t pick one element.

    Normally I am not a fan of color…However, this piece is absolutely beautiful.
    Very impressive.

    I know that this is from Earthly Delights but the first thing I think is: Tilburg’s dutch brown ale! This is the picture on their label. (it’s a very tasty brown ale BTW)

    Bizarre. I love it.

  22. klyka on May 4th, 2010 at 2:48 pm:

    Wow, I’ve been wanting this tattoo forever! Amazing, stunning, beautful…

  23. Pan on May 24th, 2010 at 5:05 pm:

    Amazing tribute to the most moving part of the epic work!! Looking at the painting again (on my wall at home) every part of that painting would translate well onto flesh. Heavy
