This is my inner japanese arm piece its a work in progress and we're kinda free handing it and letting it take course naturally.. theres more petal and shading to be added in and a bit more colour to but i love it.. please ignore the shape of my arm im sensitive to the ink and get very swollen no matter how lightly im tattooed...
cherry blossoms are japanese.. butterflies are japanese design from a japanese art book and the shading when complete will be japanese style to show wind blowing through.. hence why JAPANESE.. it doesnt have to be a samuri or geisha to be japanese!!
i think its funny how people say "japanese" theres nothing about this that makes it japanese besides the cherry blossoms...dont get me wrong i like it i just think u shoulda described it different...but nice ink anyways!
