Happy Easter!! xxx
And what better way to celebrate Easter than with the coolest eggs ever?
These are by the celebrity Tattoo artist Scott Campbell who’s inked such illuminaries as Marc Jacobs, Helena Christensen and Penelope Cruz.
Louisiana born Scott abandoned a career as a biochemist to follow his calling (you can just imagine what his parents thought..)
I love that he doesn’t consider skin his only artistic canvas – the street aesthetic of the Tattoo style works so brilliantly against the fragility of the ostrich egg. The snakes and spiders feel like their about to hatch out and all the time there’s an on-going relationship between life and death.
A lady..or a skull?
Refreshing to see talent respected for talent no matter what the roots.
I find them utterly compelling.
Wishing you all a WONDERFUL Easter!

Wow! What a visual treat!
Aren’t they fab..so unexpected! xxx
Beautiful! Happy Easter to you too! xx
And to you – hope it was a good one! xxx
wow! I think he was totally right to abandon his career as a biochemist. This is just splendid.
Thank you for this gorgeous find.
Happy Easter to all your family and you.

The two things could hardly be more different! Goes to show – always best to follow your heart! xxx
Wow, the lady or skull is soooo cool. All of them are 🙂 I used to work in the Institute of Biochemistry, for The Hungarian Academy of Sciences 🙂 Maybe I should also choose a new and exciting career. Happy Easter! xoxo Fanni
Just goes to show..you biochemists have hidden depths! xxx
That top one is so awesome. Thanks for finding and sharing these. Digging them all. Happy Easter!!
I can’t decide which I like more – the black on white – subtle and classic..or the darker white on black..the snake rolled up is pretty special! My tees have arrived!! big thank you..we’ll sort out a date for the plan of action… xxx
Amazing! Happy Easter to you and yours 🙂
I would love to have and to hold, maybe under a large victorian glass dome surrounded by candles!! xxx
Wow! I thought I was doing so great with my psanky…..sigh.
I’ll do a Blog post on them at some point – but google his ‘cut money’ – I think you’ll love it.. xxx
Happy Easter to you and your family & some cool Easter eggs for the kids! xoxo
Thank you! And to you! xxx
Love love love these gothic Easter eggs (it totally suits my mood) ! Have an “Eggscellent” Easter ! xxxxx
I was initially looking for a lazer-egg master who’s work I spotted last year..but these stole my heart! xxx
So now you know what to do when Charlie announces he’s quitting his day job in Fleet Street 🙂
Until then, Happy Easter to you and family!! xxx
I’m fully anticipating him being a porn star!! or worse..a dentist!!! xxx
Stunning! Happy Easter to you and your little eggs, Charlie and Bella xxx
Thank you! Hope you managed to find some peace and quiet xxx
Beautiful egg art! Happy Easter!x
So unexpected having it on the inside…clever, clever.. xxx
How incredible! I’m willing to admit that I don’t think of tattoo artists as “real” artists in general so this sets me on my ear! There’s so much to see in every one of them!
I hear you..he’s also done some other amazing Art that blows the mind..he reminds me of Banksy..taking something we want to scorn to new heights..as you say, eye opening xxx
Those eggs are WOW!! Happy Easter to you and your lovely family!
Thank you – and to you! xxx
