I've written pretty extensively over the years about my tattoos. Each design I've chosen throughout the years has been sacred, almost like a talisman. This new one is no different.
The tattoo I chose to be my next—this geometric, single needle, abstract piece—might seem like just a collection of shapes and lines at first glance. But for me, this represents so much more. The interconnected circles symbolize unity and the cyclical nature of life. The flowing wave pattern reflects the unpredictable currents of existence, while the arrows and lines point to movement, growth, and progress.
And that tiny triangle?
For me, it represents balance, the perfect harmony between strength, stability, and creativity. Most of the piece will be uncolored line work except for the wave at the top, this will have a pop of two or three shades of blue in the watercolor style.
The single needle technique used in this design is inspired by the LA tattooist, Dr. Woo whose work is absolutely legendary.
I had originally wanted to incorporate this family crest designed by my artist friend, 
Placement
I don’t have much open space left on my arms but I’m considering either the inside of my left forearm or on my left chest. I’m leaning a little more towards the forearm because I would almost never see it if I had it put on my chest. I’ll likely be saving that open space for the family crest tattoo.
Now, all I have to do is make the appointment. Happy days, there’s nothing like the anticipation of getting a new tattoo!
