Timur Lysenko has been tattooing for 10 years, and his style is constantly evolving because he’s willing to try new visual techniques. Some of his most striking works mix photorealistic faces with glitch art, where the human subjects emerge from stiff pixels and chaotic lines. “Three years ago I made my first tattoo where I mixed different elements,” Lysenko explained to Tattoodo. “First I was doing projects in Photoshop. I [thought] that the tattoo will look good too. I tried and I succeeded.” This practice has made him adept at matching disparate characteristics. “I already know what elements and details that look well [together] and how important the composition is which, for me, is the key to a good design.”
