Sometimes a tattoo finds its artist before the client does.
Sagar Nautiyal walked into our Andheri studio carrying a reference he’d been searching for ever since visiting Mahakaleshwar temple in Ujjain. He knew he wanted a Shiva inspired piece but he didn’t want the usual portrait. In his words, “No one has seen Shiva.”
He wanted the feeling instead.
Then came the plot twist..!!
The reference he had spent weeks searching for... had actually been tattooed by the very artist sitting across the table from him, SAGAR CHAUDHARY
At that point, the conversation changed completely.
Safe to say, the rest felt meant to happen.
The design evolved through multiple discussions, refinements and custom changes until it became a piece that was truly his.
The funniest part?
He smiled after the session and said, “This is my last tattoo.”
Two months later...
He was back. But that’s a story for another reel :)
