“The Tibetan skull is a masterpiece of craftsmanship and spirituality. The intricate carvings tell a story of transformation and wisdom, and it has become a focal point for meditation space. Its energy feels grounding yet profound, reminding me of the impermanence of life and the beauty of mindfulness. Truly a one-of-a-kind piece that inspires reflection and reverence every day!” This was made for Tim and is a second arm starting after we completed his first sleeve (videos to come). DM to book yours ! #japanese #tibet #tibetan #skull #blackandgreytattoo #blackandgrey

Thanks @devi.patel88 your neck tattoo is shaping up really nicely. Devi originally came in with a chest piece idea and it’s grown from there. It’s great when a client allows the freedom for a piece to evolve naturally, we don’t really have a plan for this instead just fitting each new piece to the last, I am super pleased with the results so far. #dotwork #mandala #mandalatattoo #geometrictattoo #neck #necktattoo

One of my favourite styles to do. American traditional, often known as “old school” tattooing, is a classic style that has been popular for over a century. It is defined by its bold, black outlines and simple, iconic imagery. This style is known for its heavy shading and use of black ink to create high-contrast designs that stand the test of time. The roots of American traditional tattooing can be traced back to the early 1900s with sailors, soldiers, and marines who often got tattoos as symbols of their experiences, travels, and personal beliefs. Common motifs include anchors, eagles, ships, hearts, daggers, and pin-up girls—each carrying specific meanings, like loyalty, bravery, and love. American traditional tattoos are admired for their boldness, clarity, and timelessness. They have a nostalgic charm that continues to appeal to modern tattoo enthusiasts looking for a piece of history etched onto their skin. #tradtattoos #traditionaltattoo #bold #bold #black #blacktattoo #newtattoo #gypsy

Had a lot of fun free handing this Chrysanthemum flower on for Henry. It’s something I chose to do last minute and am ever so pleased with the outcome.

This was great fun. I love tattooing female faces, especially in a more illustrative way, for me I think the style really works with a tattoo and will hold better than soft realism.

“The Great Wave off Kanagawa” is one of the most iconic and recognizable works of Japanese art created by the artist Katsushika Hokusai in the early 19th century. The print is part of Hokusai’s series “Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji,” and it depicts a towering rogue wave in the foreground, with Mount Fuji visible in the background. Made using a 3rl. #japanese The print is celebrated for its dynamic composition and masterful use of color and line. The wave itself is the focal point of the piece, capturing the awesome power and energy of the ocean. #japaneseart #japan #art #artist #woodblockprint #woodblock #painting #hokusai #wave #ocean #water #waves #finelinetattoo #fineline

Foo dog outline for @mr_mooseyy_ thanks as always. he foo dog, also known as the “guardian lion” or “lion of Buddha,” is a traditional symbol in East Asian cultures, representing protection, strength, and prosperity. Foo dog tattoos often depict a stylized lion-like creature with a majestic mane and fierce expression, commonly inked on the arms, chest, or back. These tattoos are popular for their aesthetic appeal and symbolic significance, serving as a talisman for warding off evil spirits and bringing good fortune to the wearer. #foodog #foodogtattoo #japanesetattoo #buddhism #blackandgreytattoo #outline #sleevetattoo #sleevetattoos #tattoodesign #blacktattoo

First session on a this ornamental leg piece for Jasmine. Thanks for choosing this I enjoyed using the shapes to create a composition that flows with the body. Ornamental tattoos are a beautiful and intricate form of body art. They often feature intricate patterns, geometric shapes, and decorative elements that can be customized to suit your style. Whether it’s a delicate mandala on your wrist, a filigree design on your collarbone, or an ornate sleeve that wraps around your arm, ornamental tattoos can be both aesthetically pleasing and meaningful. The intricate details and elegant lines of these tattoos can turn your body into a canvas for a work of art. #ornamental #ornamentaltattoo #finelinetattoo #inked #inkedgirls #blackink

Japanese Hanya mask tattoo made in a fine line black and grey style. I will be matching this on the other side with a slightly different design. Always happy to do anything like this, thanks @johnostridge The Japanese Hannya tattoo is a striking and symbolic design that often adorns the bodies of those who appreciate the depth of Japanese folklore and art. The Hannya mask represents a jealous and vengeful female demon, a character from Noh theater. Its intricate details, including contorted features and sharp fangs, convey the complexities of human emotions and the potential for transformation. These tattoos are more than mere body art; they are powerful symbols of inner conflict, change, and the balance between good and evil in the human soul. #japanese #tattoo #japanesetattoo #hanya #hanyamask #hanyatattoo #finelinetattoo

Really enjoyed this shoulder peony. Matching the other shoulder next month. #peony #peonyflower #japanese #japanesetattoo #blacktattoo #ink #inkedgirls

This was a concept drawing turned into a sleeve using skin/light tones for the peony flower with minimal detail and a dark almost black background. The effect is striking and I’m very pleased with the result, mostly done with a 3rl. Video made by @therealstanleylane A Japanese peony flower tattoo is a symbol of beauty, prosperity, and good fortune. Typically, it features a vibrant, detailed peony blossom with rich colors and delicate petals. The peony can be incorporated into various Japanese tattoo styles, such as irezumi, and often represents a balance between strength and grace. #flower #flowertattoo #blackandgreytattoo #sleevetattoo #sleeve #japanese

A Japanese back piece tattoo featuring Fudo Myo would typically depict the fierce and immovable deity Fudo Myo, often portrayed as a wrathful figure with a sword and a rope. This symbolizes the ability to cut through obstacles and bind negative forces. The tattoo might include intricate details, flames, and Sanskrit characters. It’s a powerful choice for those seeking strength and protection through their ink. Made by @therealstanleylane #japanese #backpiecetattoo #large #traditionaltattoo #blackandgreytattoo
