Russian tattoo artist Lena Lu focuses her needle on monochrome tattoos that combine botanical and insect illustrations with modern objects such as jeeps, soda cans, and crumpled take-out bags. One piece in particular features a trompe l’oeil flower that appears to be secured to her client’s inner forearm with bits of electrical tape. The adhesive looks faded and raised at the points it crosses the thorny rose, and extra strips lay flat both above and below the three-dimensional flower. You can see more of the artist’s tattoo work on Instagram. (via Booooooom)
