December brought a wide range of stories into the studio. From a first tattoo on the hand — an anime-inspired eye symbolizing awareness and inner strength — to a dark, slim black design filled with watching eyes, each piece carried strong protective energy. These tattoos were about presence, courage, and marking a personal beginning.
The month also included deeper narratives: a Jules Verne–inspired octopus on the shoulder for a French client, flowing naturally with the body; a phoenix rising above scars, transforming past pain into rebirth; and a masculine Japanese-style sleeve built with bold ornamental shifts and traditional strength. December closed with tattoos that honored resilience, storytelling, and timeless design.
