Temple Lion Covers an Old Tattoo



This beautiful oriental temple lion tattoo is stunning. It has gorgeous color and detailing and makes a bold statement on this man’s shoulder.

In Buddhism, the lion is a symbol of regal strength.

The dense tattoo design is a great way to cover up an earlier tattoo mistake. Remember – tattoo regret is common and this is one way that you can deal with it. Cover up your old tattoo with something new. That’s how Johnny Depp ended up with Wino forever tattooed on his arm. It started with Winona Forever. As we know, not all things do last forever. Tattoos do – so be sure!

Here are some shots of the tattoo before the coloring started. See how much detailing has been put in right down to the toenails of the lion.

Cherry Blossoms Make An Elegant Shoulder Tattoo



This cherry blossom tattoo on the shoulder is hitting it out of the park.

I love that tattoo design is really breaking out of the traditional mold – and that tattoo artists are becoming just that – artists. Their artistry is in design, the colour, the texture – knowing the parts of the body and how the tattoo will look on it.

Older traditional tattoo designs can have a cartoony 2d look to them – but newer designs are looser, more flowing. I think we are going in a never before explored world of tattoo design – with such looseness of strokes that would make even Vincent Van Gogh proud.

This cherry blossom tattoo drapes ever so sweetly over the woman’s shoulder. I love how the flowers are layered one on top of the other.

You can really call this tattoo an accessory. Kind of like a shawl draped over the shoulder.

Remember, tattoo regret is pretty common. That’s why a lifetime memberships with a Tattoo gallery is a great idea – there’s no rushing when it comes to choosing your tattoo.

Japanese Koi Tattoo On Your Back

MY TATTOS

This  back tattoo is stunning.

The Koi is a carp fish. And as usual, there are many meanings to a symbol, but in general, the koi is a symbol of courage and perseverance and strength. It means that you don’t give up or back down easily, and because of that, will succeed.

The koi is a popular fixture in Japanese myths and stories, where after great effort they are sometimes transformed into dragons.

Other traits associated with koi are wisdom, luck, and longevity. That is why the koi fish is a popular symbol in Chinese and japanese art, and the koi tattoo is a popular fish tattoo.

 

Remember, tattoo regret is pretty common. That’s why a lifetime memberships with a Tattoo gallery is a great idea – there’s no rushing when it comes to choosing your tattoo. Plus, you can use it for life – on your second, third …nth tattoo!
