A little different twist on the Japanese Koi tattoo, done in all black and white this Koi has the shadowy skull images on its scales.

The Japanese Koi, a very colorful and powerful tattooed image. The contrast of the orange Koi fish against the deep blue water makes for a stand out tattoo. This tattoo took just two sittings to complete, some will take much longer depending on the size and style. So what is your next tattoo going to be?
Stop by and say hello and maybe pick out your next tattoo.

Koi cover up

Old tattoo before the cover up begins. Your tattoo is not really that permanent. I really like doing cover up tattoos. They are always a bit of a challenge and a bit of a mystery not always knowing where the finished tattoo will come from.

Japanese Koi Tattoo

Japanese style tattooing is one of my favorite styles to work in. The Koi fish is a very strong image for tattoos. Koi fish are know for their strength and ability to swim up stream, legend has it that when it reaches the source of the stream or river it leave the water and turns into a dragon.
