Cheryl Cole's Bum Tattoo Artist Paints Surreal Portrait Of Ex-Girls Aloud Singer (PICTURES)

Cheryl Really Is An Oil Painting

The man behind (no pun intended) Cheryl Cole's bum tattoo has proved his skills extend beyond defacing the derrières of the rich and famous, after painting a convincing portrait of the former Girls Aloud singer.

Nikko Hurtado has shown what an oil painting the Geordie beauty is, depicting her with a ruff around her neck and a pair of antlers on her head in the surreal piece of artwork.

The US-based tattoo artist spent six long sessions tattooing Cheryl's bum - something which she is said to have paid £12,500 for.

He recently said of the former 'X Factor' judge: "She really doesn’t know how beautiful she is.

"She’s tough, man. But she’s also so wonderful and very down to Earth," he told The Sun.
