This is quite the beautiful sakura tree. Its roots spread far and deep on and into the ground. With its branches old and twisted, along with its trunk, giving it that old, weary, character that resembles an elder person. As well as grace and peace, included as the overall feeling of this tree. The pedals [...]

Another full back geisha tattoo (I know) but this one has some interesting features to it. I like the very smooth style to this tattoo as it gives everything in it a soft feeling. The way her face is shadowed is so unique and subtle. The sky above her is shown as a pond with spiraling [...]

Here’s another Koi fish, this one also having some totally great detail to it throughout the whole body. The water around it looks really cool with its curves and thin extentions that wrap around the fish. The scales on the body are nicely done, along with the face and fins. Even though there is not very much [...]

This is one beautiful fish!! The colors used in this tattoo give it an Autumn feel. Along with the orange Fall leaves on the sides, the water surrounding the body is done without color… but with such character in each and every curve that it only helps to further show off the shape of the koi [...]

The skeleton on the sleeve is really great. With a mantle of red and gold, [...]

Check out this sick tattoo from East Tattoo! Now this is what I call ‘two-faced’, with both the kind smile of a woman and the more intriguing eye of a Hannya mask. There is the more gentleness of the flowers in her hair, while we also see a horn coming up on the left side. [...]

I really wish that we could see more of this tattoo because it looks like one heck of a design! But since we are limited to this one section, it will have to be enough for now. I think it is…we can see how well detailed the Samurai’s uniform is. It is completely rich with [...]

I absolutely love the angle of this samurai on his warrior horse. The view from underneath and to the side is really a bit of genius and helps to give this tattoo a completely imposing feel. It’s almost as though you might be a small child in a village, watching as the men go out [...]
