Koryosai Ho-o.



Jonas travels many miles each session in order to honor his intention to have the Four Guardians (Ho-o, Turle, Diger, Dragon) as an Irezumi piece. After just a few sessions progress is promising and I am very satisfied with the results. This image is based on a print by Koryosai (1764-1788) that Jonas himself found on the internet. Good work!

When clients try to study Ukiyo-e and Irezumi before deciding on what to get tattooed by a Horishi, the result comes out great. It is nevertheless crucial to make sure that your source is credible so mistakes and dissapointments are avoided.
