Lion Tattoo by Gustavo Paternina, Barranquilla, Colombia

custom black and grey lion tattoo combining realism with geometric linework. The goal was to create a piece that balances strength and elegance while keeping the lion’s expression calm, confident, and intense. The contrast between the soft shading and the clean geometric lines gives the design a modern look without taking attention away from the realism.

Done by Gustavo Paternina in Barranquilla, Colombia.

I’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback!
