I am obsessed with Japanese culture and the the symbolism and meanings associated with Japanese tattoos. I have been collecting Japanese woodblock prints for several years and through this I delved into Japanese tattoo artistry. It is a Hikae style dragon starting from my chest extending to my elbow. I included a Bird native to the Philippines that represents my wife and my connection with her.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?This is an expression of who you are and the feelings you harbor inside. My right upper arm would say, remember your grandfather and family and your connection to fishing, the sea and the past. My left leg tattoo would say: tempting fate can be fun but beware the willow tree that bends as the bear pulls on the chain.
What would you do with the $25,000?Get a baddass tattoo off course! I need it to complete my right upper arm and I need want something that represents my kids on my right calf. Also, pay off some medical and credit card debt.
