He calls himself Lee or Li, don’t know the name of his studio, just have his contact, if you’re in the area and have WeChat dm me and I’ll send it on!

I love art like this, and primarily have this style on my left arm filled with different animals. I think it’s a timeless look because the art transcends time. Great choice, OP. They did a hell of a job!

When I see the beautiful works of art like this one on this sub, I cannot fathom why anyone tolerates or plans a horribly done tattoo.

This is beautiful.

this is an excellent piece. Im practically in awe.

u/SquirrelOnFire Jul 13 '26

Sick! The subtle color in the bird elevates it. Looks like it is in a position where it won't get much sun so it should hold up well!

Do you have original picture? Incredibly good tattoo

No problem

I can’t remember the artists name, but I’m sure you can image search
