Laura Carlson+FollowThe waitlist is years long for a reason. So stunning.This particular piece is utterly stunning. I heard this piece alone took 47 hours to complete, which is a true testament to the skill and endurance on both sides. #Tattoos #Nissaco #Osaka #BodyArt #Blackwork #TattooGoals 11Share
Laura Carlson+FollowMy grandpa passed away. Can anyone help me identify his tattoo?My incredible grandpa passed away recently at the age of 85. I'm so grateful my grandma took a picture of his tattoo before he passed because for whatever reason, I never asked him about it. It's got a banner with his name, EDWIN, and as a kid I always thought it was some kind of leopard. The only story he told about it was that he got it to cover up a crude "LOVE MOM" cross he had done himself when he was a kid. I believe this was done sometime between 1954 and 1965. In that time, he was a railroad switchman and a long-haul trucker. He was also a total badass who rode motorcycles. I don't know anything about tattoo styles, but I would love to know more about this. If anyone has an idea about what this is or what the style might be, I would be so grateful. #FamilyHistory #FamilyRelationships #FamilyStories #HelpNeeded #Tattoos #Skin 11711199Share
