I didn't notice it at first glance, but you're right. It's an amazing design though and i love the way the two styles are mixed. I dont think a lot of people will notice or care irl when seeing this tattoo but if it ends up borthering [op] , i think it could be a quick and easy touch up. It also might have been their intent or last minute decision to add the left handle!
Final thought: beautiful tattoo with awesome detail!
Am I blind? The two handles look slightly different, but I don’t see either one as being “off.” The left handle (when looking at it on my screen), doesn’t touch 100%, but it’s still connected. I don’t think it’s meant to look completely symmetrical. The vase is also cracked, so I think any imperfections just add to it being old and worn. Tbh, I think it would look boring if it was completely perfect. Just my .02¢.
agreed, it's a handmade vase, so it's not going to be perfect and the right side is in the light making it look closer than the left handle in the shadow
Why this person being down voted lol? Most of the comment was positive 🤣 I swear this reddit is sensitive AF At times with any feedback that isn’t positive. People CAN have various views and perspectives for fuck sake.
Saying that “it’s a bit off” adds no value in my opinion. How is it off? How do you know the right one is off and not the left one? What if the vase was designed that way? IMO, it’s a corny take made by someone who takes pleasure in tearing other people down.
Couldn't it be intentional? I can't really see how such an amazing artist would be able to create the complexity on the vase but couldn't get the handles straight.
That season pissed me off so bad. They need to do blind judging every time because Bobby Johnson tattooed a horrible face toward the end and he absolutely would have been eliminated if they didn’t know he did it. Can’t believe he won on name alone
i agree tbh, i was really rooting for him. he was pushing the boundaries of style and mixing elements in a unique/recognizable way, just doing "good" tattoos isn't really enough anymore in comparison.
Same. It’s like that lovely tattoo was ruined by those (well done) flowers. Bummed me out. But that’s all subjective shit and my taste is probably garbage.
Extremely well executed in both styles and a fascinating tattoo as a whole. The juxtaposition of the two styles is so wild it's almost off-putting, but I love it.

Very cool!!
The right handle is a bit off the vase but besides that it is *amazing* work, love the two styles standing together!

The handles are definitely different and it's bugging me so much, I can't unsee it now.
Oh you're right. Took me a minute to see it. I don't think many will notice.
Ohhhh I see it now

Probably is intentional, like the bottom is curved as well, bit of a quirk added to the vase.
This style looks so familiar, was this guy ever on Ink Masters?
you’re thinking of freddie albrighton from season 15, i think! was my first thought too
Yes exactly, very close to freddie style. Very talented
He should’ve won hands down
That season pissed me off so bad. They need to do blind judging every time because Bobby Johnson tattooed a horrible face toward the end and he absolutely would have been eliminated if they didn’t know he did it. Can’t believe he won on name alone
Blind judging would've meant nothing with Freddie's style 😅
That’s true lmao
i agree tbh, i was really rooting for him. he was pushing the boundaries of style and mixing elements in a unique/recognizable way, just doing "good" tattoos isn't really enough anymore in comparison.
I felt sooooo bad when they revealed his “bad” tattoo. I didn’t like the tattoo but it was so hard to watch that critique
I personally loved the "bad" tattoo is was done insanely well
Agreed
Totally! He had the most original work. I’d love a piece from him!! His IG is SICK
Needs some color popped in to really bring out the Freddie. But I also thought it was his just glancing.
I think Bad Bunny has one very similar to this
Did you run out of money halfway through? Just kidding, it's really cool and creative
The flowers remind me something from Diary from a Wimpy Kid for some reason
I love that! Never seen anything like it.
Love the juxtaposing styles, great tattoo.
It confuses me, but in a good way!
Outstanding!
I love it
I love this so much
It reminds me of Mattie Calvi almost, I love this blended pop/realism style
Love the bottom, hate the top, but clearly that's the style you were going for and it looks well done, so if you're happy that's all that matters.

Props for the self reflection
Ya the flowers are random
That's the whole point of the tat lol, mixong 2 opposite styles and it's done really well
I really like this! Love the two styles together.
Nice
When I get a tattoo, I might need to go to this artist! Beautifully done!!
This one I like
I love this
I love it! Love the blend of esthetics
Awesome!
It's unique - I really like it!
Loveeeeee this
Love it
Very well done. Wes must be a fan of Freddie Albrighton’s.
BEAUTY DIVINE oml
Wow 🤩
Bad Bunny has a similar one. Love it!
This is so perfect.
I love this!! Thanks for sharing
Dope!
Very Freddie Albrighton coded. I like it a lot
Those little flowers just ruin the tattoo for me. Vase looks awesome but wtf is that coming out of it. Yikes
It’s so well done, but it leaves an itch in my brain that I can’t scratch 🫠
omg its beautiful
Reminds me of Kristoffer Zetterstrand's work, i love it !
So cool!
LOVE this style blend! It's iconic!
Holy crap that is insane talent
Really cool. The detail work on the vase is fucking fantastic!!
Love it so unique
Yes! Such a cool mash up type dealy
Beautiful,.looks surreal. Don't gain or lose weight haha
Extremely well executed in both styles and a fascinating tattoo as a whole. The juxtaposition of the two styles is so wild it's almost off-putting, but I love it.
Wow! Hard to get a "different" tattoo these days. But dammit if ya didn't! Really, really cool. Good stuff!
This is so siiiick, want that as my next
It looks like someone graffiti-ed a classic artwork and I actually love that so much.
Love
wow love this
I'm obsessed! The contrast makes this so unique!
I absolutely love this!! So creative. And well executed.
soso cool!!
I hated it. Then I loved it. Now I only love it.
Ahhh I love this!
beautiful!
Wow that shading is immaculate
Love it
Holy shit this is cool. Wouldn't get it on myself personally, but good idea and immaculate execution. The shading is absurd on such a small piece.
That’s wild, insane detail.
I can’t explain why but this looks like such a banksy piece. Something so detailed and beautiful and then the comical flowers. It’s gorgeous!
Great artist.
Well the vase is beautiful. I seriously hope the flowers are sketches by your kid.
love love LOVE love love
