Movement, contrast and composition
Koi, flowers, waves or a powerful animal: Japanese tattoos connect separate elements into a flowing composition.
Composition is central to Japanese tattooing. The main subject and background work together: waves, wind and flowers can follow the movement of an arm, leg or back. This makes the approach particularly interesting for larger projects.
Planning a sleeve or extending existing tattoos? We consider the whole area, even when the work takes several sessions. The balance of open space, black and colour helps connect the individual elements.
Motifs carry different cultural and personal meanings. We discuss what appeals to you and the context behind it. Bring references for the mood and composition you like so we can develop your Japanese tattoo in Breda with a clear direction.
