PORTFOLIO FEATURE · BRI LYONS
Tiger & Peonies
Realism, floral structure and a vertical upper-arm composition. The important part is that this post now opens the permanent tattoo record instead of ending in a feed.

Updates
Short first-party notes from BL-INK: portfolio features, artist notes, available concepts, studio announcements and reminders that point back to the permanent work instead of disappearing inside a social feed.
A feed with somewhere to go
Short posts. Permanent destinations.
An update can be temporary. The tattoo, artist profile or guide it refers to should not be.
When an update is about a specific tattoo, it links into that tattoo’s permanent page. When it is about an artist, it points to the artist profile. When the subject deserves a durable explanation, it points into the guide library.
The Updates hub itself is indexable. Tiny individual status posts do not need separate indexed URLs unless they become substantial standalone content.

EXISTING TATTOOS · BL-INK GUIDE
Touch-up, rework, cover-up—or laser?
Before asking an artist to “just cover it,” start with what you want to preserve and how dark/dense the old tattoo is.

PORTFOLIO · COLOR
Large-scale color work
A useful reminder that scale, body flow and palette have to be designed together—not selected as separate settings.

FROM THE ARCHIVE
Mountain, Trout & Pheasant
Older work can resurface here and still send people back into the portfolio instead of pretending every post is breaking news.

The guide library is becoming part of the studio experience.
Planning, healing, work, training, skin tone, longevity and cover-up questions now have permanent pages that can be linked directly from tattoos and artist profiles.
