Polynesian Tribal

This was really fun.  The client was here for a Polynesian turtle last year and has returned for some more tribal work.  He brought me an image that inspired him.
I took it and drew a new version of his idea.

Polynesian Add-on

Second session on this leg piece.  The first session was a cover-up of a smaller piece and the addition to the calf.  The client will be back next year to complete the leg and go above the knee.

Polynesian Add-on

Added on to my clients leg work today.  She will be back again to complete this piece next year.
It has been great working on this over the years.

Polynesian Islands

The client came back for the third year in a row.  This year we worked on an addition to the turtle we did last year, the Hawaiian islands in Polynesian.

Polynesian Tiki

My client comes to the island often, and I will see him again soon for a second session on his arm.  This was a fun tattoo.  The tiki is abstracted like a mask.

The clients wanted an abstract wave done in Polynesian Tribal.

This is from my flash.  I am grateful to finally make this tattoo.

Polynesian Butterfly Sigil

I like this combination of two “Ha” sigils to form both the matriarch and an abstract butterfly.  Powerful sigil work is deeply satisfying.

Polynesian Elephant

This was fun.

Polynesian Sigil

I like this sigil.  It is powerful, and it finds usefulness with nearly anyone.

I got a chance to get a second session in on a client.
We will add more to this work when he comes back next year.

Mahalo, see ya next year.
