THE SIMBOLOGY OF LION TATTOOS
KRISH TRECE, NEW YORK, USA
BY TATTOO LIFE CREW 2022
The lion (aka Panthera Leo) has been considered the king of all animals for many centuries.
The idea of the super-natural powers of the lion survives still today, and in some parts of the world, people believe that using or wearing some parts of the body of a lion it is possible to regain the lost strength, treat illnesses and even obtain immunity from death. The most important aspect of this symbology is his close link to the Sun which has deep roots.

60 HEAD TATTOOS
Heads up! Get ready to see some of the coolest head tattoos ever created!
DEC 6, 2021
Many times we talk about tattoos that require dedication to wear, most often when discussing hand or neck tattoos. Head tattoos can be thrown into that category as well—hiding them is pretty damn difficult—but they deserve a little extra credit given the placement.
Moving beyond the concept of dedication, head tattoos are incredibly badass. There is so much an artist can do with that real estate.
It’s pretty much the only part of the body that is rounded, thus making it the perfect location for all sorts of different designs.
Here’s a photo gallery filled with pictures of awesome head tattoos. Check ‘em out!

BIMONTHLY SUMMARY OF THE TATTOO WORLD No35
By: Daniel Martino – @revista_arte_tattoo
2020
Q: Your themes are varied, but there is an element that is always present in your compositions, these would be flowers. Why do you choose them and what options does this element give you? Do you have a favorite flower?
A: You’re right! Apart from the obvious answer, which would be that I love them for their exceptional beauty. Flowers are an ideal and versatile decorative element to complement the main element, without detracting from its visual prominence. On the contrary, they add nuance, balance and movement to the design. Another good use they provide, is that they are perfect for closing or adapting compositions. My flower par excellence is the chrysanthemum, not only because it has a wide variety of shapes and colors, but because it symbolizes durability over time and the unique ability to adapt to any environment.

It may be pretty uncommon to have a pet deer, but many of us feel connected to the deer we grew up with in the media. Growing up, millions of people from around the world saw Disney’s «Bambi» as a child and fell in love with the clumsy fawn, as well as his friends Thumper and Flower. Then, in January of 2020, it was announced that «Bambi» would be adapted into a live action feature film. According to Disney, this film will be a «companion piece» to other CGI wildlife films in their library, notably 2016’s «The Jungle Book» and 2019’s «The Lion King.»
In honor of the upcoming «Bambi» live action film, take a look at some of our favorite deer tattoos from talented tattoo artists around the world.

INTERVIEW WITH KRISH TRECE NEO TRADITIONAL STYLE
DATE: 2019
AUTHOR: skin-artists.com
Q: How is the feeling of knowing that someone trusts you enough to let you put an eternal mark on their skin?
A: It’s a huge responsibility that shouldn’t be taken lightly! It takes even the most skilled tattooers years to be able to execute a tattoo correctly. This is why we can never stop learning and perfecting our technique. We want our clients to be happy and show off their piece now and when years go by with pride. To see your client come back for more or bump into them when years go by, and for them to look as happy as the first day, means the world to us tattoo artists.
