Based in Portland, Oregon, Pony Reinhardt creates the most beautifully drawn vintage-style tattoos. Working from an appointment-only studio “Tenderfoot”, Reinhardt creates intricate line drawings with no need for color or shade.

From fungi to delicately shaded birds and even the occasional unicorn, Reinhardt’s pieces are cohesively put together with both vintage and contemporary themes. The works of art are very similar to the illustrations in 19th-century scientific books which were drawn in a similar style. Take a look at some of Reinhardt’s awesomely detailed work below and enjoy. What beautiful skin-art!
