“Then they’ll see I’m a fat redneck with an unhealthy obsession for horror!” — From the poetry of Sterling Grice

Sterling’s Stellar Style

  • Black out sleeve

    This is a perfect illustration of the beauty that blackouts beam when rendered with perfect consistency. This blackout beauty ends with a paradoxically elegant collection of Cybersigilism spires curving chaotically over the top of her hand.

  • Decorative Blackout Half Sleeve

    Peer into the depths of darkness itself with this blackout decorative display. Sterling’s mastery of design is emphasized in this piece with the perfectly placed moon and the tantalizing transition of black bands travelling away form the blackout.

  • SHHHHHHHHHH

    Sterling did this Deadpool tattoo quite a while ago, and it has aged like fine with with its stellar depth, well executed duel light sources, and precise forms. The comic book element is emphasized with contrasting colors, hues and chromas, pulling the image together in a stunning masterwork of design.

  • Animal Skull Peony on Thigh

    This animal skull flows perfectly along this tattoo collector’s thigh. it is emphasized by the sue of black in the leaves, framing it and the peony while directing the flow properly and pristinely along her thigh and hip.

  • Frankenstein's Monster

    “It’s Alive!” Poor unnamed monster of Frankenstein, cast aside by his horrified creator to wander around the countryside with but a singular desire to belong. The expression of subtle pain on the face of this monster portrait is supremely rendered. Even in this process image, this unfinished design expresses a promise of immaculate precision.

  • A Dichotomy of Death and Beauty

    Once again Sterling wows us with his brilliant use of black against skin tone. This beautiful expression of death and life flows up the collector’s thigh with glove-like perfection.

  • Buddha Back Piece

    With brilliant balance this buddha backpiece fits perfectly along this tattoo collector’s hip lines, his arms flow with her scapulae as though they belong. The mandalas and peony are perfectly placed to add balance and flow, accentuating her body with tantric grace.

  • Floral Portrait

    Feast your eyes on this delectable delight. A beautiful Victorian-style portrait of a bouquet of flowers. The angles of the shoulder against the V line in the center merge seamlessly with her shoulder, directing our eyes to the central flower as though we peer at its celestial soul through the central point of the spiraling petals.

  • Black Snake

    Here we have a succulent black snake upon which our eyes frantically feast. He slithers silently though a collection of peonies. This piece was executed with amazing consistency and placed with perfection.

  • Mindful Mandala

    What expressed a love of life more than a collection of flowers and mandalas. This piece is pristinely placed to maximize the use of the space with decorative delight.

  • Delightful Death Moth

    This deathmoth was placed perfectly on the centerline of this collector’s sternum, and balanced with inner facing peonies. The use of the black to bring the skull forward, sets the moth apart from the peonies and catches the eye without becoming muddled is an expression of pure wizardry. Harry Potter, eat your heart out.

  • Flower Skull

    A Dynamic dead creature lunging forward from the depths of the underworld, announces that, in it's expression of demise balanced with the beauty and vitality of a floral display, all is well at the tone of the bell.

  • A Column of Cute Critters

    What a shame it is that Sterling doesn’t do more illustrative color animals. The balance of colors and us eof forms flow up and down this collector’s leg just as the frolicking creature do in life.
