Japanese Design
Japanese tattoo used to be an ancient art expression and was only used for decorations on figurines, paintings, and for walls – anywhere other than human body. This is because they have a high regard for the meaning of the Japanese tattoos. Some interpreters said that it indicates a social rank in a respectable position, while others repel wild animals and wicked spirits. As time went by, this tradition has been set aside and more people had come to print Japanese tattoos on their bodies. Some common Japanese tattoos are koi, cherry blossoms, dragons, and Kanji characters. Conventional Japanese pattern features geisha and samurai warriors.
