Description

This is my other good tattoo, a phoenix on my right arm. It was done by Timppa at Other Side Tattoo and I am extremely pleased with it. The colours have held up nicely for 3 years already, and the design is just gorgeous. We designed a japanese-style landscape background for it as well, but I haven't had time to get it done as I've moved a bit further away.

The bird was modeled largely after a piece of Cherry Creek flash I found at the studio, modified according to my wishes and some inspiration from Aerin-Kayne's wonderful piece Phoenix Fire, of which they had just bought a print. That piece is the reason for the lack of black outlines in the tattoo.

This was much trickier to photograph by myself than the rose, partly because of the size, but most of all because of the location. Maybe I should get someone to help me next time...

i love how it's outlined but in a red rather than a harsh black
great design!
