Design Story

The central part of this half sleeve tattoo prepared for Daniele symbolizes family, with flax leaves at the bottom and the turtle above them.
The Marquesan cross and the sun above the members of the family indicate the reached harmony while the two tiki on its sides protect them from all directions.

From the path of Kamehameha and the opposing waves in the past, through family they reach to the right part, the future, where waves are favorable along this voyage together (the braid and the row of birds).

The stones at the base of this tattoo represent things learnt, upon which to build this life.
