Japanese Cherry Tattoos
Inspired by centuries old woodblocking techniques, the Japanese refer to sakura (cherry blossoms) as a symbol of life. After their too-short bloom, the cherry blossom falls to the ground and is scattered about by wind and rain. It is in this life cycle that their blossoms become truly anticipated and appreciated for all their beauty.
Whether you choose a Japanese cherry blossom to
celebrate life after illness or to honor a lost love, the intricate tree
design makes a beautiful choice for a full canvas tattoo and is often
selected as a backpiece or worked into smaller shoulder or leg tattoo
designs. With a popping array of bold pink color and delicate, paper-like leaves, a Japanese cherry blossom tattoo is both a feminine and fleeting reminder to live a life of beauty and be present in the moment for that is all we have.
