“#aware” Tattoos

Mono no aware - work in progress Yeah I'm aware it's backwards but aren't we all just a little?@megandreamtattoo i would really love to have cherry blossom trees with the phrase "mono no aware" on my shoulder/upper arm. 3 inch Old English letters Canada underlined line by the center of the universe we all know who that is aware that is a Surrey BC CanadaMy little panda...but with a lot of meaning. Thanks to Louis Boshoff for my tattoo. And yes...I am aware the photo is upside down. Sorry about that.I am aware of how the owl looks like, on a pic it looks a bit dodgy, and it's healing too! In reality it looks way much better. #inlove #owl #thigh #doghighfive #doglover Olde with smoke coming out the top. This is just the line work done. Need to get more and nee ink though, anyone aware of a darker ink that will pop out better for ppl with very dark skin? #knucklezdezigns #TattooParty #DiamondDezigns #HandTattoo @knucklezdezignsEU SOU ESPÍRITO is about finding a path of healing. My client, Paulo, was starting a new fase in his life, moving out from his birth-town, and wished to heal himself from the past traumas and unfinished bussiness. Here he becames a human being aware of his own path and his own limitations and possibilities. “This tattoo is an impression that expresses a great depth of the mind. This design is an imitation of a person who is aware of his surrounding reality. The three faced woman is an illusion of a beholder who is moving her head from left to right to be aware of what’s happening in the surrounding. She is hanging her tongue around her neck because she knows that the tongue which actually symbolises the speech of a person is the most powerful weapon in today’s world and with great power, comes great responsibilities. It can inspire, spread joy and express empathy. But it can also destroy and demean someone. Hence, the hanging tongue symbolises that there are limitations to its usage thus the greatest powerful human weapon should be used wisely and tactfully.” done by @vinayak_b.e.a.r.d.e.d at @acetattooz with @kingstattoosupply #blackandgreytattoo #backtattoo #fullbacktattoo #customizedtattoo #customart #facetattoo #power #indiantattooartist #acetattoozindia #acetattoozcolaba #ac"I think human consciousness, is a tragic misstep in evolution. We became too self-aware, nature created an aspect of nature separate from itself, we are creatures that should not exist by natural law. We are things that labor under the illusion of having a self; an accretion of sensory, experience and feeling, programmed with total assurance that we are each somebody, when in fact everybody is nobody. Maybe the honorable thing for our species to do is deny our programming, stop reproducing, walk hand in hand into extinction, one last midnight - brothers and sisters opting out of a raw deal." - Rust . . . . . #instadaily #instatattoo #instaartist #tattooart #linework #tattoodesign #finelinetattoo #darkartists #blackworkers #ink #tattooing #tattooartist #artist #tattoo #inked #tattooprovocateur #ink #laeviv #blackandgrey #blacktattoo #delft #blacktattooart #FORMink #inkstinctsubmission #btattooing #blackworkerssubmission #galaxytattoo #geometry #goldenratio #galaxyManu ‘Iwa (great frigate bird) design that I drew myself and had inked by @brady_202 When the black silhouettes of the ‘iwa (great frigate bird) appeared over my grandparents' house, I would stare at them in awe, thinking that they were some kind of pterodactyl that somehow escaped the fate of the other dinosaurs. Never flapping their wings, I wondered how they were up there. There was usually more than one, so you can imagine the scenes of some cheesy sci-fi thriller, "When Pterodactyls Attack" that would play through my mind. Eventually my grandfather would explain to me that they were birds (wow, really?) and were harbingers of something at sea, most likely a storm which had driven them inland. Fast-forward a couple of decades after the Internet became available to us all, I eventually discovered, thanks to Google, that these birds will spend most of their lives at sea and in flight, close to their homes, usually landing only to incubate eggs and all that good stuff you would likely see as a part of the Nat Geo special for any avian episode. It has been many years since I have seen one of these effortlessly riding the winds high above, but the next time that I do, I will make sure to scream, "pterodactyl!" for old time's sake. Just kidding. I will look at them in a different light, with a new respect and appreciation for them. My grandfather saw these birds as a sign of something in the distance, something in the near and very possible future. I will wear them as a reminder to myself to heed the signs in life, namely those events that just feel like they're from God. They will be reminders to be attentive, receptive, and aware of things around me. Nā hō‘ailona. (Pay attention, Nic!) Side note... ‘iwa is a Hawaiian term that means "thief" due to this bird's methods of stealing food from other seabirds. Not always in a negative frame of reference, this concept was also used as a descriptor for Kamehamehaʻs union of the Hawaiian Islands. And... Not that there is any coincidence for my inclusion of this symbol in my design, but how's this ‘olelo no‘eau: "He ‘iwa ho‘ohaehae nāulu." It translates into "a frigatebird that teases the rainclouds." It's kaona or hidden meaning is reference to a handsome man which arouses jealousy in others. If you've ever seen ‘iwa in flight, they are pretty impressive, their large wingspans and effortless glide on the wind make for a stately appearance. I doubt I evoke the same kind of emotion when I walk by others. *insert awkward silence* UPDATE: A well-known local t-shirt company stole this design for a t-shirt! Crazy huh?! #polyneisan #PolynesianDesigns #manuiwa

Neither side is necessarily good or bad just a part in a bigger picture...⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Pixeled edges - Outsiders or those not involved see only small fractures of what is happening. Only those stuck in the middle with each other are aware of what the true picture looks like...⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ The Phoenix - The story of rebirth... We've been through a lot of stuff as a family and as tough as its been, no other team I'd rather have than them! Personal and group growth is sometimes painful but the results can be beautiful!⁣⁣
