Color Tattoos by Penguin in Auburn CA

Not everyone likes color tattoos and that makes them kind of special to me. They take extra time, extra care and they can cost more than black and gray pieces. Color ink has a completely different vibe and you might not have second thoughts about decorating your body with a beautiful palette. 

Vivid Designs from a Sacramento Based Artist

Everyone deserves to have gorgeous body art that reflects their own personal style. Penguin is an artist who believes everyone can have color ink. She will take your skin tone and undertone in mind when choosing colors and give you some real expectations on how the colors may heal on you specifically and then give recommendations on a color palette that works for you. You are gorgeous and you deserve beautiful ink from a an artist who takes the time to research and understand color theory.

Here’s some ways you can keep your color tattoos as vibrant as possible:

  • Stay out of the sun, keep covered
  • Wear Sunblock every day
  • Exfoliate and moisturize
  • Get colorful pieces in places that get less UV rays (Inner arm, legs, calves)
  • Get bold colors as opposed to pastels or light pigments
  • Get touchups when needed

Beautiful tattoos can last a long time if properly cared for, but it’s important to consider the potential impact of various lifestyle factors. For instance, just a few trips to the equator without adequate sun protection can have a significant and detrimental effect on recently inked skin art. Therefore, it’s crucial to take the time to evaluate your lifestyle and make proactive plans to be diligent about skin care. By doing so, you can effectively protect your investment in stunning body art and ensure that it remains vibrant and beautiful for years to come.

Realism, Nature and Cartoon Body Art for All Skin Tones

Penguin has spent years studying and practicing color tattoo saturation and blending to create vibrant and lasting tattoos. Semi-realistic floral designs with subtle color transitions can result in soft and beautiful painterly pieces. Her experience and knowledge of color theory is used to make bright and whimsical nature tattoos to cartoons and anime inspired sleeves.

Many people have so many different ideas of their ideal colorful tats. Here’s a list of styles of color tattoos you can mix and match to create something truly as special as you are. 

  • Childhood Cartoons
  • Movies
  • Toys
  • Album Art
  • Flowers and Foliage
  • Books and Illustrations
