Put a Saddle on it - A5 Limited Edition Art Print
Tattoo flash–style illustration inspired by old-school tattooer Zeiss, featuring a classic pin-up girl riding an outrageously wide big carp — a tongue-in-cheek take on the familiar phrase: “put a saddle on it.”
Anyone who’s spent time around big carp knows how the stories go. Each year the fish get wider, heavier, and somehow more rideable. This piece leans straight into that exaggeration, blending big carp culture with vintage tattoo flash aesthetics and a healthy sense of humour.
Drawn in a loose, sketch-led ink style, the illustration keeps things simple and bold, letting the absurdity do the talking. This one was made purely for fun — a playful nod to anglers, tattoo lovers, and anyone who appreciates a good bit of nonsense.
Printed at A5 on heavyweight 350gsm paper, this is a very low limited run, with each print hand-signed and individually numbered. Small, collectable, and easy to place, it’s right at home in a fishing shed, garage, office, or wherever you keep the pieces that make you smile.
A light-hearted piece celebrating big carp, tall tales, and not taking things too seriously.
