ChristchurchKelly was an existing Zealand Tattoo client who had a tattoo piece completed of a small dragon.
For her next tattoo design with Zealand Tattoo, Kelly decided to have tattoo design brainstorming session with head tattoo artist, Zane. As a result of Kelly consulting with Zealand Tattoo – she was informed on the benefits of timeless art styles (such as Oriental Tattoo Art) and the Japanese tiger tattoo design was selected as the subject matter.
