I think I am going to get some ink. A retirement present to me. A daruma doll on my forearm where the sleeve needs to be finished. I love them, They are good luck charms for various purposes.
I like the trio the best
something along those lines.
The colors are for various purposes (and there is a doll ritual that you do until you achive the goal).
You leave the eyes blank until you have the goal...you paint the eye to stat the goal and when the task is complete you paint the other eye. (thats why the 3 have no eyes, 1 eye and 2 eyes i would imagine)
Japanese culture is weird but the tattoos are awesome. And the rest of that tattoo is a crane in water and elements so it goes nice in the water.
I think this one is on a leg or something...they probably had puny arms!
