Koi Sleeve: Session II
Round two of my koi fish sleeve with Scotty "Munster" Stommes at Olde Town Tattoo in St. Cloud, Minn. The black koi represents myself as a father, the orange koi represents my daughter and one more koi on my upper arm will represent my son. The water and lillies represent my wife because of her beauty and that she is the reason we're all alive..

Protection and Courage Symbols
According to Japanese legend if a koi succeeded in climbing the falls at a point called Dragon Gate on the Yellow River it would be transformed into a dragon. Based on that legend, it became a symbol of worldly aspiration and advancement. More generally, the Japanese associate koi (also known as carp) with perserverance in adversity and strength of purpose. Because of its strength and determination to overcome obstacles, it stands for courage and the ability to attain high goals..
session3
Ok I skipped posting session 2 on here and seesion 3's photo is terrible due to flash reflecting off of the cocoa butter on my arm. I have a little bit more to go on this one and we will finish when I start my third piece which will connect both arms and span across my chest. The work will begin in 2 weeks. Again this was a tribal coverup that Don at Artfreek has done a great job on so far..
Think Outside The Box
Just having a little fun here..
