Tattoo Design : The Phoenix

Posted by admin

In ancient Egyptian mythology and in myths derived from it, the phoenix is a mythical sacred firebird. Said to live for 500, 1461 or for 12594 years (depending on the source), the phoenix is a male bird with beautiful gold and red plumage. At the end of its life-cycle the phoenix builds itself a nest of cinnamon twigs that it then ignites; both nest and bird burn fiercely and are reduced to ashes, from which a new, young phoenix arises.

So I’ve recently become re-interested in the Phoenix and the mythology behind it and have started looking for a tat that I like. Looks like it may be a longer search than I expected. Below are some of the tattoos or designs that have caught my eye in my initial search.

Ran across this talented Tattoo Artist whose designs combine the tribal style with current touch of goth. Not too much goth but enough to make it visually different.

Tattoo Design : The Koi

Posted by admin

I’m guessing my next tat is going to be something with the Koi Fish in it. Not sure why I am drawn to Koi’s, maybe the meaning behind the symbolism or that the flash really looks cool. Regardless, I’m still on the hunt for that perfect Koi for my next tat and here’s 2 that I came across on my journey.

Tattoo Design : Skull

Posted by admin

While I’ll probably never have a skull tattoo, I do appreciate and secretly like a lot of the designs I see. I found this Skull Tattoo that really appeals to me and almost makes me think about incorporating it somehow in my next tattoo.
