Your Mother's Tattoo

Yes, I remember seeing that tattoo in . Don't you too?

Ainu

photo credit
The Ainu people are an indigenous people who have lived in Japan for at least 10,000 years, according to some scholars. They now live predominantly in Hokkaido, the northernmost island of Japan. They practiced tattooing for centuries. But only women wore or applied tattoos. And the tattoos appear like mustaches.

Americans might take special interest in the Ainu people since modern scientific techniques connect genetic material of Native American Indians with the Ainu. This suggests that some Ainu people crossed from Asia to Alaska via the Bering Strait, then continued to move south and eventually became part of the genetic stock of the American Indians.

No Room To Spare

This is the handiwork of a Japanese tattoo artist (I am not sure whether the artist technically qualifies for the honored title horishi) at Evilways Tattoo Studio in Japan. Please go to their website. It helps a lot if you can read Japanese, although a few words are in English.

Japanese Tattoo Ladies

Fans of irezumi (one of many Japanese words for tattoos) might want to wander over to this website and order a copy of a volume of Japanese Tattoo Ladies, a publication which covers the topic of its title. You can order back copies of this publication, as well as other works on Japanese tattoos. It would help you a lot if you can read Japanese. Otherwise you're restricted to looking at the tiny pictures and dreaming.

Kat Power



Kat Von D might get a lot of criticism in the tattoo world, but some of her portraits are still phenomenal. These are two of my favourites of hers, Sharon Tate and Eliza Dushku respectively.

Dead Sexy


I love this Zombie Marilyn Monroe, done by Jason Butcher. Marilyn is probably one of the most popular icons for pinup tattoos, even entering the world of celebrity, on Megan Fox(y), below. Although for some reason she didn't go for the zombie option.

Pig Out!





I thought Cornfed's best work was in Duckman, but since that got cancelled he's obviously sidelining in a bit of inkslinging.

Tramp Stamp

'Tramp stamp' is a new name in my vocabulary. Cute.

As we can all tell from the dragon motif and the size of her hips and derriere, the woman on the right is Asian.


Burning Passionate Desire

Love is always demanding. It commands respect, care, fullfillment, satisfaction and other things to feel that love. Lovers have passion for each other which they express by their love making, romance and other physical gestures. The need for love rise whenever you and your partner are alone and having romantic time together. They let their burning passionate desire comes out by going around each

Braaaaaaaains! (And looks, too!)

Maybe if they get closer the tattoos may migrate from the non-Asian-looking one to the Asian-looking one.
