14 tattooed people get naked to break the clichés

 

The clothes do not make the man

The tattoo does not always have a good reputation, even if it has existed for millennia. People who tattoo themselves are mistakenly thought to be irresponsible and infrequent. To show that tattooed people are actually "Mr. and Mrs. Everybody", photographer Alan Powdrill photographed tattooed people with and without clothes. The result is sublime!

 

1. "I was 51 when I started tattooing. My dad was already dead and my mom didn't say anything as she was in the early stage of dementia" Graham, 58



2. "I like to be different and every day people ask about my tattoos. Good tattoos don't come cheap, cheap tattoos don't come good" Izzy, 48
