'Koi no taki_nobori' meaning koi climbing rapids... Carp swim upstream to become a dragon.. They have succeeded in climbing the river rapids. Determination to overcome all obstacles, evoking images of energy, power, courage, overcoming life's difficulties! From sketch to stencil to outline. This one is draping over the clients shoulder from chest to back.
Working on this Samurai tattoo sleeve now!
Love Peonies! This stencil is for a gap filler for a client. Get in touch if you'd like something similar!
Two awesome outliners! And best grey wash inks!
From a freehand sketch, to a stencil, to a tattoo. This chrysanthemum tattoo is for a client we've already created a half sleeve for and now we're adding a chest plate. Chrysanthemum's are one of my favourite flowers, love tattooing them!
Another session completed on this sleeve tattoo! Next session we'll continue work on the chest plate and maple leaves.
Daniel traveled from Darwin and we did two full day sessions on his chest plate and sleeve tattoo! It features a Hannya mask on the chest and cherry blossoms, Koi fish and lotus flowers on the sleeve. Only one more session to go to finish this tattoo!
I've got a few dates free for tattooing in April and May 2016! Book in quick to get some small tattoos done or to start a large piece!
Worked on this new piece this week! Cherry blossom is a cover up of an old tattoo (by another tattooist) with the swallow, bird to be finished next session.
Via MaterPiece Tattoos! They also wrote a great article, with video, explaining why tattoos are so expensive.
