KitchenAid in progress


Not my tattoo, a friends from long ago, the last time I worked in a kitchen. Sadly, Imoved away before I got to see it finished.
When chivegate hit r/all r/popular, bringing r/kitchenconfidential into my feed, it's been bringing back lots of great memories for me. Arthritis in my elbows makes a lot of work I used to do unrealistic for me anymore. I'm also job hunting after being laid off thanks to doge. 💔😣
So….I dug through my archives to find this, for a way to share a little something to say thank you to both u/flexican and the rest of the chive post regulars for bringing some much appreciated joy and distraction from the real world this holiday season. 🙏 🎅

    That reflection is actually really, really well done

    I don’t like tattoos. And let’s be real: chef tattoos are so predictable. And everyone wants to show you their tattoo and tell you the story of when, why, and what was happening in their life at the time. It is like your singer-songwriter (ex) friend that repeatedly tortures you with their latest masterpiece.

    YOU CHANGED MY MIND! This is incredible! The angle of the kitchenaid is such a great optical illusion. Idk if I’ve ever seen a tattoo with depth before. And the mixing bowl 🤯 OMG! One of the best and most memorable tattoos I’ve ever seen!

    When are you gonna have the sauce splatters/flour explosion added?

    For real, though, that’s a sick ass piece.

    Did your friend live in the Hampton Roads areas of Virginia? I had a tattoo artist there that had I think this in his portfolio.

    This is a really beautiful image, but a terrible idea for a tattoo.

    I’d have gone with Pistachio instead of Black Matte, but I’ll let it slide.

    In all seriousness, thats a sweet piece. Looks great
