Turkish Tattoo Artist Inks Incredible Images

Jefree Naderali is a tattoo artist who lives in Taksim, in Instanbul, Turkey. He specializes in photo realistic tattoos that are simply breathtaking. There are many reasons why his tattoos are so exceptional – he is creating photorealism, which is pretty tricky, and he’s doing it on a small scale, and his gradients are smooth and buttery as though painted on to the skin rather than tattooed into it.

Tattooer Naderali is a master of creating smooth, soft gradients with his tattoo machine, a skill which makes his tattoo portraits that much more appealing because these soft gradients create soft textures for the skin and hair of his tattoo subjects. Using this tattoo skill, Jeffree Naderali can also ink high contrasts into his tattoo designs to further add to the illusion of photo realism, as you can see in the first picture in this article; the photorealistic golden eye tattoo that seems almost to be a photograph that has been printed on to skin.

Each one of this artist’s finished tattoos are dramatic and eye-catching in its detail, even the smaller tattoos. His photo realistic tattoos capture the emotion of its subject, revealing a snapshot of that character’s inner world in a tattoo.

Most of Naderali’s tattoos are created using only back and white inks, but he also has a few color pieces that are just as stunning as his black ink tattoos. When Naderali chooses to add just a splash of color to a black and white tattoo, he generally opts for red inks, which stand out well against the grayscale of the rest of the design.
