Throwback from 2003. My 5th year into field trips. Skrang River, Sarawak. The late Penghulu Legan (left), head chief of all longhouses in Skrang, a VIP politician and the rest of the tracking party to an isolated longhouse for Gawai Festival.

A delicate fine line butterfly trio, a subtle femininity.

Would you keep it as a small personal piece, or expand it into a flowing fine line composition?

Cherry blossoms are one of the most iconic symbols in Japanese tattooing. It represents beauty, strength and the fleeting nature of life. This shoulder piece flows naturally with the body, with soft branches wrapping the shoulder and scattered petals creating movement and elegance.

Placement like this works beautifully on the shoulder, allowing the design to flow naturally into future sleeve work or remain a striking standalone piece.

Cherry blossoms often symbolise new beginnings, resilience and living fully in the present moment.

Would you keep this as a shoulder piece or extend it into a full Japanese sleeve?

Only a few spots left this month.
