As you may have noticed, I really like drawing on fabric. I've started a new pair of jeans that I've found quite recently in the bottom of my closet.
Here is the beginning of it! =]

Jeans by Commission!
People seem to like my "Wearable Tattoos on Jeans" idea. One of them so much that asked me to fill up a pair of her jeans with my personal style designs... and since I love this girl to death, plus I admire and fan-out her amazing talent as a fellow artist, I couldn't wait to start!
She requested a more... dark tone, "Giger" kind of feeling. So this is what I came up with!

Wearable Tattoos on Jeans
I can only say I started this whole thing due to my love for tattoos and increasing desire to learn tattooing.
I started by making several sketches of ideas floating on my head of possibles tattoos that I would love to have but not sure if ever get, considering also that I firmly wanted that all tattoos I might possible get would me of my own design (what else can you expect from a designer =/ )
So I grabbed my old destroyed pair of jeans (if you must know, I'm not a big fan of pants in general =P) and with sharpie in hand drew my very first sketch for this "project":

Original Sketch on Tracing paper
Design on jeans.
It pretty much represents my love for Dia de los Muertos style and Catrinas. I wanted to add a bit more "Classic Tattoo-ish" style to it so I placed the roses with the type "Voodoo Queen" on the top. And... thats pretty much how everything started =]
Many were added later on and I can say that this pants are almost unwearable of how much I have used them! They are my walking portfolio!
