On Tattoos and Mythology

Tanuki Priest with Sake

First off, a little background:

I am 27 years old, a photographer, less than devout Buddhists with Shinto and Christian Tendencies and I love tattoos and Japan. More-so I love the art and mythology of Japan. It is for that reason that I have decided to cover my body with images and figures from Japanese mythology. As this project progresses, I will include updates, images, and thoughts and stories relevant to characters and images being tattooed. All of my work that I will be sharing is done by Stacy McCleaf of Chrome Gardens Body Art in Gettysburg, PA. If you like what you see, feel free to show her some love at her Studio, or on her Personal page.

Thanks for stopping by, I look forward to having you along for the journey.
