My yin and yang koi tattoo. Frantic and excited for more ink after my first tattoo, I walked into Industrial Strength in Newtown wanting either koi or a yin and yang. So I got both. A guy named Drew did it and we had an awesome talk. I found it way more painful, but it got easier once the shading started.This tattoo represents my parents, among other things, but is primarily symbolic of what I believe in, my heritage, and who I am. I'll always love it. #Koi #YinYang #Family #BlackandWhite #Opposite

I drew this on and tattooed it in one sitting. This is the style I love doing and I enjoy the most. Freehand on fingers. I love it..For Andrei. (14.12.1998 - 14.01.2024) This memorial tattoo I did on myself, is based on a custom design I drew for my friend. We started tattooing it on him back in 2019, but unfortunately, never finished it. background dark lettering is based on the latest tattoo Andrei got before his death. Now, the memory of him will not only stay in my heart, but on my skin.And this is what I did with it when I got my chanceOne of my own designs which I enjoyed tattooing even more than I loved designing it!More traditional please!! I love doing it!!
This is a lil zentangle that my little sister drew one day - I decided I'd eventually get tattooed...Somewhere. I it'd have to be a big-ish piece. I love it, in all its imperfection: such a nice detailed bit of art.“I went on a 14 day silent retreat and it was probably the hardest thing I’ve ever done.Towards the end of the two weeks I had what I think I can only describe as an out of body experience during the 4am session. I felt an overwhelming bubble of sadness and guilt literally rise within me but it wasn’t mine I was just experiencing it for someone else, I opened my eyes in floods of soundless tears that also felt not mine.I forgave my mum there and then, and it felt natural that I would stand by her no matter what, no more distancing myself, no more pushing her to get help, I would just be there unconditionally.When I left and came back home my mum told me she had something to tell me. She’d woken up really early in the morning (around 4am) and she said it was then clear what she had to do and why she had to do it.I believe I felt what my mum was feeling. I still don’t know what my mum actually felt that morning but it gave her the power and motivation to change her life.”Brian contacted me and gave me an idea and said do something. I domt do a whole lot of color, but when I do I truly love it.Saw this on Pinterest and wanted it and I got it but instead of having it the exact way my tattoo artist did an amazing job adding things I love into it. It was so painful I started crying and screaming in pain we had to stop half way through I almost left half way through I found it so painful but it was so worth it I got this tattoo a while ago. It is my first tattoo and I love it so much!😍
