Oh my gosh! Over two decades I have seen huge transformation of the body art industry. In India too earlier there were very less tattoo palors and people did not had easy access to good tattoo artists… Now things are different.
I still remember I knew very few tattoo palors names that period of time Cheeky Monkey (Delhi), then DevilzTattoo (Delhi) and Kraayonz Tattoo (Mumbai). Now, not only India but world has got great emerging artists.
I am excited to dive back into the world of body art and increase my knowledge to gratify my keenness.
Before, I end this blog I wanna give a tip to those who are looking to get a less painful tattoo – you can get etched on your wrist. My personal choice.
I always have some attraction towards the clean minimal line tattoos and this one by @nan.mtattoo has got my attention. It might have got tattooist little pain in wrist in order to keep his wrist steady to ink this piece.
I’ll update you if tattooist share some more details about this artwork. Till then enjoy and be inspired.
Well, don’t be confused this one is an astonishing tattoo design that seems like you could grab the swirling handle-like pattern on the customer- Paddy Buckley’s arm. It is an interesting tattoo design that certainly makes viewers take a second look due to its unusual optical illusion.
This impressive skin art is inked by tattoo artist Paul O’Rourke from Allstar Ink in Limerick, Ireland. The tattoo is so intriguing that it has become an Internet hit and many online visitors are praising this unusual creation. According to O’Rourke, the tattoo design was quite challenging but fun at the same time.
I totally loved the twisted pattern of this delusional tattoo; but wonder how the client deals with people wanting to poke his arm to clear their visionary doubts?
Hanuman Chalisa is one the famous devotional poems by Tulsidas and Sam De of Guns N Inks got a chance to etch the starting lines of the poem on the arm of Rohit Malik.
Sam says, “the guy specifically wantd the Hanuman Chalisa…..”
Sam inked it for him and we brought it on PNT for you.
Sorry Friends, for not posting anything for you in last month, guys what to say the life got so busy that I din get time to be online to write something for you. The fact was that I had been on a trekking trip to the hills of Kullu-Manali, India, and there was no cyber café over there to post something for you. Anyways, please forgive me and read further an interview with Anabi of ‘Anabi-Tattoo’, Szczecin, Poland.
Eloping from home to become a tattooist is something interesting and this interesting story is about Anabi, who ran from home at the age of eighteen and today he is a master of tattoos. Know his work and him better in this interview.

Disha Singh: How did the idea of becoming a tattoo artist come to your mind? Were your parents comfortable with your decision to become a tattoo artist?
Anabi: When I was 18 years old I ran away from home, I have taken up residence in catholic internat, one of colleague had self made tattoo machine,
He knew that I possess drawing skills and he asked me about design for him.
I looked for a while how he tattooed himself, then I said “give me a try”
…and that’s how it began 🙂
Then I searched hints in tattoo studios.
Between 2002 – 2004 I was practicing two years in “alien tattoo studio run by Joseph” in my hometown – Szczecin. Eight months ago I opened my own tattoo studio, and it’s first custom tattoo in Poland.
I don’t have albums with tattoo flashes, every design is individually made for each client.
Disha: What we see Anabi doing when he is not tattooing?
Anabi: I spend whole day in my tattoo shop…when I’m not tattooing, I spend my time at drawing, making new tattoo designs, working in gym and spend some time with my girlfriend and friends.
Disha: Which machine and ink do you use?
Anabi: I use several machines… at this moment my favourite is Shader from SUNSKIN, I use it for colour works too. Another good for colour/shader machine is “SWAN” from “WORKHOUSE”
For outlines I’m using custom machine from “VIKING TATTOO POLAND”
which I won as an award in contest for best tattoo flash.
Last one is shader from our live tattooing legend Piotr Zurawski, who got first tattoo shop in Poland.
Ink that I use is Intenze and Starbrite for colour works and Indian ink and destilled water for shading.
Lately, I bought set of 21 ink concentrates made by Waldi Wahn from Shockin’ City.

Anabi: It’s belong from piece 😉
If It’s a piece that need more then two session, I Usually take charge by session…
How much is belong how long session is, and how big is progress at session.
Disha: How have things changed regarding your inking over the years?
Anabi: Over years? I just started and I’ve got a looong way to go 🙂
Disha: Who is Anabi in flesh and blood?
Anabi: You need to ask my friends!
Disha: Finally, what suggestions do you have for the newbie in the industry and especially to those who want to get tattooed?
Anabi: Choose good artist and show him your satisfaction with a fat tip 😉
Aha! What a tattoo! Anabi has really quenched my thirst for a difference and beauty. Beautiful use of blue, pink, black, green, etc. colors in the tattoo has made bring it here for you guys. Eyes of the girl are telling many stories just need an eye to read them. 😉
Anabi is a Polish tattooist inking his art on the canvas of people’s skin in “Anabi-Tattoo“, Poland.
When we say ‘Kindergarten’ – rhymes, cute playground, scribble drawings with butterflies, ladybirds, flower, cloud, stars, and many other naughty things strike our mind.
When I saw this tattoo by Sonja of Amazon Tattoo the first word which knocked my mind was “Kindergarten”, so I named it the“Kindergarten Tattoo”.
Temporary tattoos are best option for those who wish to flaunt their skin with a tattoo but do not wish its permanence.
Permanence is one strong reason which repels and attracts one to get tattooed.
Sharpie tattoos by Todditron are another best way to flaunt your skin in black extraordinary tattoo design. The Sharpie tattoos are designs made with broad-narrow lines drawn on the skin.
These sharpie tattoos can also be helpful to some of you who are in search of a tattoo design which is totally unusual.
Tattoos are to adorn your body and to adorn your tattoos – there are microdermals. Microdermals work like jewelry for your tattoos, whether jeweled or plain. They appear like a silver lining in the clouds.
As seen in the picture above, you’d surely be awestruck by enhanced beauty of the tattoo from a jeweled microdermal. This is done by Lucas of PiratePiercing.
This is a great idea to spice up your tattoo and cross your limits to try new body modifications.
