Recently a servicewoman returning from active duty overseas decided to add to her tattoo collection with this extensive floral patterning. Draping gracefully across her shoulder, it is feminine and bold, tribal and timeless.

There are several tattoo designs in the LuckyFish Art Store featuring this pattern:
Today a returning client chose this design as a dedication for his father and two grandfathers. Wearing the names of these men in the center of his chest is a way to show his connection with them, and honor their continuing influence, having guided him to become the man he is today.
'Triplicate Significance' Celtic Tattoo by Pat Fish
"One of the most recognizable Celtic symbols, the triskle within a circle makes a beautiful tattoo. This allows for three significant words or names to be placed in the ring. Often the names of children or other loved ones are placed inside the ring, which acts like a banner in a dedication tattoo."
Today was the second session in the evolution of this dynamic Celtic Knotwork Sleeve. The goal was to make his first tattoo as big as possible, covering the entire upper arm. Go big or go home!

Today marks the culmination of 50 hours of tattooing to create this set of sleeves and now the chest piece. All based on Pictish key patterns and spirals, they represent the highest expression of my goal of bringing the ancient patterns to life in skin. Tribal? This is my kind of tribal.
