trademark symbolmy new tattoo. It was a 1920's German trademark for the Verlag Crescendo Sheet Music Company. First saw this in a lecture in one of my design classes back in school. It's only appeared in an out-of-print book of German Logotypes from the 1920s.
ny symbol tattoosThis is spelled wrong, what it's meant to read is Chai, not "Hi": This symbol, commonly seen on necklaces and other jewelry and ornaments, is simply the Hebrew word Chai (living), with the two Hebrew letters Chet and Yod attached to each other. Some say it refers to the Living G-d; others say it simply reflects Judaism's focus on the importance of life. Whatever the reason, the concept of chai is important in Jewish culture. The typical Jewish toast is l'chayim (to life). Gifts to charity are routinely given in multiples of 18 (the numeric value of the word Chai). Hamesh Hand The hamesh hand or hamsa hand is a popular motif in Jewish jewelry. Go into any Jewish gift shop and you will find necklaces and bracelets bearing this inverted hand with thumb and pinky pointing outward. The design commonly has an eye in the center of the hand or various Jewish letters in the middle. There i

water tattoo symbolThis is something i've wanted to do for about the last decade or so. I know my parents wlll loathe it, but i had to anyway. I'm a big geek about symbolism in things, and this carries a lot of symbolism for me. The Peony is a flower of May. It stands for happiness, prosperity, love and affection. Our son will be born in May, this was a sort of acknowledgment of that. Common in Chinese symbology for a peony is as a positive influence on a couple. Red is a life giving color, which is why i picked red as the color. The peony in Japan also has a bit of an audacious or adventurous attitude, which i guess is appropriate for a 29-year old guy that's about to be a father getting a big tattoo. I do apologize to my parents for getting this, but i do not regret my decision. It is a piece of art that carries a lot of meaning for me.

wisdom symbolIn thailand, tattoos like this offer protection in dangerous professions (motorbikers, construcion workers, boxers...). The symbols require activation by a practicing monk at temple or a mentor (which i learned i couldn't do becasue i'm a woman). I figured my time on the road might call for a spell anyways: it's basically 'protection for the lone traveler'. The smaller symbols inside are marks of the villages. Elephants indicate wisdom and good luck, which is fine by me: I rode an elephant years ago and since then, i've run into a few (or they've run into me).

tatto hindu symbolThis is the Hindu symbol Om. It is the symbol of the Absolute. I was asked to do a symbol of importance and great meaning. This is the first thing that came to mind. In this picture the paste is still setting. The next day the symbol was barely visible. She kept the paste on for about 8 hours but her skin there was just too resistant. Even after a touchup reapplication the next day it still would not hold. Unfortunate because I had the shape very crisp! It would have been beautiful. I made a home made transfer to use as a template, but that was drawn in reverse in free-hand. I want to try this design on someone again. Volunteers?

symbol tatooThis is the top side of the tattoo. It carries a lot of symbolism as well. The koi is filled with symbolism, which is why it's such a popular tattoo subject. Koi symbolize bravery, in that when a koi is caught, it apparently does not flop around like many other fish. A koi symbolizes aspiration towards betterment, and the overcoming of difficulties. A koi also is known for swimming upstream, and going against the flow. Black, the predominate color of my koi, symbolizes the father. That was the impetus behind this entire tattoo. For those of you who that have a tattoo, no explanation is necessary. My best friend said once that a tattoo, no matter what the subject matter, marks a place in time for the person getting it. I can't think of a better way to describe it. For those that do not have a tattoo, no explanation will ever make sense.

goddess symbol tattooMy next tattoo idea , just deciding which colours I want to use and where I want to put it ( probably on the inside of my lower leg) and where I'm going to get the money from to do it.
hand symbolThis is spelled wrong, what it's meant to read is Chai, not "Hi": This symbol, commonly seen on necklaces and other jewelry and ornaments, is simply the Hebrew word Chai (living), with the two Hebrew letters Chet and Yod attached to each other. Some say it refers to the Living G-d; others say it simply reflects Judaism's focus on the importance of life. Whatever the reason, the concept of chai is important in Jewish culture. The typical Jewish toast is l'chayim (to life). Gifts to charity are routinely given in multiples of 18 (the numeric value of the word Chai). Hamesh Hand The hamesh hand or hamsa hand is a popular motif in Jewish jewelry. Go into any Jewish gift shop and you will find necklaces and bracelets bearing this inverted hand with thumb and pinky pointing outward. The design commonly has an eye in the center of the hand or various Jewish letters in the middle. There i

tatoo symbol hinduThis is the Hindu symbol Om. It is the symbol of the Absolute. I was asked to do a symbol of importance and great meaning. This is the first thing that came to mind. In this picture the paste is still setting. The next day the symbol was barely visible. She kept the paste on for about 8 hours but her skin there was just too resistant. Even after a touchup reapplication the next day it still would not hold. Unfortunate because I had the shape very crisp! It would have been beautiful. I made a home made transfer to use as a template, but that was drawn in reverse in free-hand. I want to try this design on someone again. Volunteers?

foot tatoo symbol dePhoto a Day for July 2006. My daughter and I were invited to a pre-wedding reception to be introduced to the bride, we could probably call it a bridal shower. This was at our neighbors across the street. The party was very nice and 3 Sudanese ladies were busy painting small artwork on the ladies hands and feet with Henna paintings

I had it done in the thick tribal black.

japanese symbol tattosThis is something i've wanted to do for about the last decade or so. I know my parents wlll loathe it, but i had to anyway. I'm a big geek about symbolism in things, and this carries a lot of symbolism for me. The Peony is a flower of May. It stands for happiness, prosperity, love and affection. Our son will be born in May, this was a sort of acknowledgment of that. Common in Chinese symbology for a peony is as a positive influence on a couple. Red is a life giving color, which is why i picked red as the color. The peony in Japan also has a bit of an audacious or adventurous attitude, which i guess is appropriate for a 29-year old guy that's about to be a father getting a big tattoo. I do apologize to my parents for getting this, but i do not regret my decision. It is a piece of art that carries a lot of meaning for me.
male symbol tattooAccording 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.

buddhist symbol tattooIn thailand, tattoos like this offer protection in dangerous professions (motorbikers, construcion workers, boxers...). The symbols require activation by a practicing monk at temple or a mentor (which i learned i couldn't do becasue i'm a woman). I figured my time on the road might call for a spell anyways: it's basically 'protection for the lone traveler'. The smaller symbols inside are marks of the villages. Elephants indicate wisdom and good luck, which is fine by me: I rode an elephant years ago and since then, i've run into a few (or they've run into me).
