Such a beautiful representation of Jesus through a tattoo like this. So much detail in the skin of his face. The placement of the tattoo also is a perfect spot…near the heart. This isn’t just any scene of his face, but specifically near the time when he was crucified and was made to wear the [...]

Here’s a full back tattoo of a deity in the middle with very striking colors and shades, along with very well done curves on his clothing and skin. But around him we see a more realistic variant of the traditional Chinese dragon that looks so very cool. The look of the dragons skin is really [...]

This is a very intriguing and powerful looking tattoo. Here is a man with a crown of thorns, looking down in what is an odd perspective…it is near and far, all at once! He has beams of light coming from his eyes and evil looking, snake-like heads coming from his beard. The detail on the [...]

The work on this Buddha face is so clean and smooth. It is interesting placement on the hand like that, with rays coming out and away from the head and face. The squiggly lines going down and onto the fingers is also a nice touch and continues the piece to it’s very end. Too bad [...]

This is a Udjat symbol, which is an Egyptian symbol for the sound eye of Horus. It is a rather common Egyptian sign that symbolizes healing and protection. While usually done in a more simple black line drawing, this colored image boasts a real looking eye and some more ornate additions to the easily recognizable [...]

This was an interesting take on a theme. While it is true that we all have a kind of “duel” nature – reflecting both good and bad qualities in our lives, this tattoo shows this as two halves of the same female angel/demon. The angel half shows a very pretty wing, with feathers fanning out [...]
