Nichole's Leg




I finished Nichole's leg today.  A leg sleeve based on the painting of the Edo-Pop period in Japan titled "The Great Wave of Kanagawa" by Katsushika Hokusai.  Nichole was incredibly tough and it made the tattoo that much better for it.  Thanks Nichole!  

I was additionally able to see a print of the painting at the Edo-Pop exhibit this spring at the M.I.A. among other representations of the period.

Nichole's Leg Sleeve


In progress, Nichole's leg sleeve based on the painting "The Great Wave of Kanagawa" part of the  series "36 Views of Mt. Fuji" by Katsushika Hokusai. 
Nichole and I were both fortunate to see prints of this at the 
Edo-Pop exhibit at the MIA this winter.  I look forward to finishing this piece and updating the
progress.
