Description

This striking portrait captured by photographer John Blais in Chicago features a bald man with extensive tattoos across his head, neck, and hands, wearing a black shirt and a wristwatch. He is shown in a close-up framing, carefully using his hands to light a lighter while looking downwards with a serious expression. In the blurred background, a colourful urban mural depicts a stylized figure wearing sunglasses and a high collar. The composition places the tattooed subject in the foreground against a textured street-art backdrop, highlighting intricate skin art and personal styling in an urban setting.
