Finally finished off this full sleeve of Japanese traditional themes and characters including Raijin the Japanese Shinto god of thunder, lightning and storms.

This project was done at both and

It may be just look like a garden chair to most, but to my customer, it reminds him of his time spent visiting his grandparents.

HEALED

My take on the classic bucking bronco tattoo has healed wonderfully! No touch ups needed and he hasn’t fallen off his horse yet. Result!

Easily one of my fave pieces of last year. 🐴🤠
