A day with Harry Mytton of Harry Mytton Signs

I tagged along with Harry on a job at Liverpool tattoo shop Fools Gold Tattoo to document his process. Harry is a traditional sign writer using the age old technique of a brush and mahl stick whilst adding his modern twist to designs. The golden cherub pictured was created using a mix of paint, gold leaf and crushed shell to match the other signs also done by Harry.
