These are all original designs (and the odd reimagined design, generally explicitly stated if so) that I would like to tattoo or to use as reference in a tattoo. Typically once I tattoo one of these images, I do not replicate it, so nobody else will be walking around with your tattoo. If it is still shown on this page, it is safe to assume that it is still available.
Please note that sizes indicated below are the minimum size/or the size of the drawing in its original proportions. Nearly any design can be made larger, and most would look great if they are enlarged, and a handful can be shrunk or have components removed
THIS IS NOT THE ENTIRETY OF MY AVAILABLE WORK. I ONLY UPLOAD DESIGNS HERE THAT ARE EASILY PRESENTED IN THIS FORMAT. SOME DESIGNS ARE VIEWABLE ONLY IN-PERSON.
I also maintain a sizeable collection of classic flash and images of woodblock prints I am always ecstatic to reproduce that is not shown here, so please ask about that, especially if you are interested in a tattoo with a more traditional American or Japanese style.
For any questions, simply email me or fill out an appointment request form. Thank you for looking.
Note: Some designs may be shown as unfinished sketches. The tattoo itself would be a fully-rendered image. Colors and other design elements may change according to the person and placement.
The Three Jewels. Great for an upper arm or thigh, but pretty versatile as long as you have space. Around 6in tall, but can be larger. Willing to hook up the right person who gets this design.
7/8 inches tall. Thigh, ribs, upper arm, side of calf are a few placement options among others. I would like to keep color but open to black and gray if that's what YOU'D prefer. ***Nosferatu not included***
5in tall or larger. Really nice for an outer upper arm or a rear calf, but definitely works in several places. Black only also available (but color preferred)
About 5-6 in tall. Uchide no kozuchi. Clouds can be edited to suit the placement or fit in gaps between other work. Black and gray option also available.
About 7 inches tall. Great for inner forearms, stretching across the crease of the arm, calves, thighs, shoulders. Roses look great anywhere!
6-7 inches. Perfect for bicep, chest panel, calf, thigh, or many other placements. Available in black and gray or alternate color schemes if preferred.
Namazu done as a reference to the American traditional "burning question" motif. About 7/8 inches tall. Perfect for a limb. No changes, please. Really, really want to do this!
4 1/2 in tall or larger. Ideal placement is dependent on size, smaller would be great for outer calves, larger would look nice on a thigh, ribs, or upper arm. Black and gray option available, as well as skin tones on the face if you prefer.
4-5 in tall (or larger, of course). Very versatile placement, ideal for a limb.
3 or 4 inches. Throw it anywhere it fits! Yowza.

5-6 in tall. Scientifically inaccurate carnotaurus. Rear calf, on an arm, or larger on the outer upper thigh are some options, among others. Black and gray would also work well for this design.

3 1/2 to 5 in tall. Versatile placement. Color available if you prefer.

Big. Thigh, back, or potentially outer upper arm only. Color preferred, but not opposed to black and gray.
Half sleeve. Concept only, background would need to be drawn on with markers and so would have variation from this drawing. Koi dragon, mid transformation after cresting the waterfall. Traditionally done moving upwards, a downward dragon koi could be interpreted as a rejection of destiny while still growing and transforming as a person. Also, it looks cool.
