NEW BUTTERFLY FLASH DESIGNS

Here are the latest additions to my book of flash. I love love love tattooing butterflies :)

For one, they are pure beauty, but also their significance is quite special. From ancient times the butterfly, psyche, has signified not only the mystery of physical metamorphoses, but also the loveliest transmutations of the soul. From the Book of Symbols : ‘The butterfly is one of our most poetic images of psyche’s self-renewal beyond even traumatic endings. Australian aborigines imagined butterflies as returning souls that entered the afterlife in the form of earthbound caterpillars. To the Aztecs butterflies represented the heroic souls of sacrificed enemy warriors or of women who died in childbirth. In the East, the quiescent but transforming pupa has seemed a model of spiritual evolution through serene contemplation.’ Just to name a few. Hope you’ll enjoy my representations!

These and all previous flash designs will be available to get tattooed at our Brighton tattoo studio throughout Saturdays this November. For all details and to book yourself a slot please visit my events calendar here.

Thanks for looking and hope to see you there!
