INK MASTER

RIVALS

Times Square, New York 2014

In preparation for Ink Master’s 5th season premier, two vinyl arms were stretched a staggering 400 feet across Times Square, ready for inking.

Monorex artists submitted their sleeve tattoo designs to High Rise who selected L’Amour Supreme and artist duo The Yok & Sheryo to paint theirs freehand over 3 sleepless nights. 

In line with the competition’s “Rivals” series, the artists chose spray paint as their weapon in a dual of a lifetime. Whilst The Yok & Sheryo layered the left arm with America’s traditional pin-up tattoo style, L’Amour used his celebrated Mishka Clothing illustrations to saturate the right arm.
