Japanese dragon tattoo

Here’s a short video of some tattooing done at Tabernacle tattoo by Zenon Pawelski. on this type of layout the video seemed to help the tattoo translate in a better perceptive. Composition is just as important as the drawings them self at times. We stenciled the major components and have drawn the rest together this tattoo was done in 16 hours with four sessions to complete.

Kyosai was an artist in Japanese history born in 1831, his artwork has influenced tattooing and many aspects of Japanese traditional tattoos specifically. He is most well know for his eccentrically crafted paintings. His talents were renowned throughout Japan during his most prominent days especially as a satirist, targeting the Japanese police force and other aspects of the government with his work. He received multiple jail sentences and countless lashings as a result of his persistence. Kyosai was a total outlaw in his time and a true inspiration. He has a ton of work that has influenced tattooing for over a century most of which got him at least a few lashings for his creativity. In a previous post we discussed the dynamic of an artist Hokusai and his studies,…

It is always interesting to meet the new faces and to see the new people that come to our tattoo shop tucked away in Historic Ybor City.

blog

I wanted to have some fun today and just discuss the hits. This is a classic image of a Dragon done here at Tabernacle Tattoo. This was a fun one and now you can see the process in a time laps. We study the materials and put in the work to make a proper tattoo here at the shop. Theres only one way to generate consistent material as long as we have and that is to study and put in the work to make it HOT!!!

Recent Adventures

blog

We have been hitting the circuit hard recently our travels have reunited us with old friends and introduced us to some new ones as well. Traveling to conventions is always fun and full of neat experiences. On our travels to the Villain Arts Philadelphia tattoo convention, the weekend of February 9th 2018, the Philadelphia Eagles had just won the Super Bowl and the city was a giant party. There were so many people in town for the Championship parade which only added to the experiences at the convention and added quite a bit of diversity to the mix, which allowed us to educate people new to tattooing on our process and studies. Many individuals at the convention were looking for Japanese and traditional tattoos which was really cool because we could…

Black and Grey Tattoos

blog

It seems that pop culture is influencing the world of tattooing in a series of new directions. There will always be the traditional tattoos that stand the test of time however, new cultural norms always pop up and create new fun ideas for the artists. We pride ourselves in researching and studying the designs and the potential anatomical movements of these new school tattoos. Newer designs such as dot work and geometrical patterns are in high demand and as a high end tattoo shop it is our duty to be able to provide a readable innovative tattoo for the client. Attached is an innovative design based on the geometric tattoo concepts in conjunction with Nordic ideologies. This black and grey tattoo was a ton of fun to study and put…

Custom tattooing in progress

blog

Below are just a few tattoos I’ve been working on at the moment. At times larger more complex tattoo work takes real time, it never goes quick or easy, it’s a matter of effort on both ends, the client and myself should share the passion for tattooing in order to develop the best product. My enthusiasm and energy is always where it needs to be and I understand this is a difficult process and a test of endurance, because it takes heart and soul on both ends, but I can get you through this and in return I will put my all in to it. Many people are surprised by the amount of unfinished projects are out there under circumstances outside of my control. I really appreciate all my clients,…

Dragon Party!

blog

This is another fun, water color painting I did as a study for a Japanese Dragon tattoo. He's busting out with flames creating some Traditional Japanese puffy clouds and wind. Who wouldn't want to party with this dude? Day in and day out I strive to enhance or maybe perfect in a creative light how these magical creatures should be projected. Sometimes that leads to Dragon Parties. As always I am very appreciative of the work I have been tasked to do and the ability to express how I see things through this art.
