This is on my right calf. got it in texas at Generation X tattoo. i am not buddhist. but my little brother's nickname is Buddha, so this is for him. i fucking hate the flower. any suggestions on how to cover up that portion are welcome.
If I were you, I would go to see a better artist than the one who did that, and see what they say about options for covering it up. I would have the whole thing covered up, and start from scratch.
