You could have a mountain-scape with cherry blossoms and bamboo shoots?

Depending on the images and the style of the tattoos, that would probably work out rather nicely. The black and gray would really make the color pop. Contrast is a funny thing, and I’ve seen some great color pieces hidden in black/gray sleeves.

Hey! Well, it’s funny, cause all the tattoos I get are text. It’s still a work in progress, but I’ll show you how my back is shaping up.

I still have a lot to go (typography is small!) but I plan to follow the contours of my body and have a light gray back drop of words to fill in the negative space. I’m going for the “wall of text” thing. I also have the rest of my pieces in my photo album. Cheers!

Adorned actually has an iPhone app where they stream a picture of a tattoo daily. I like their stuff. Clean.
