Blue Koi Half-Sleeve with Sakura

Description

A bold Japanese-style half-sleeve featuring a blue koi swimming through stylized water and surrounded by blossoms. The koi symbolizes perseverance, strength and good fortune; the flowers (sakura-like) evoke fleeting beauty and renewal. Heavy black shading, saturated color scales and flowing lines give a dynamic, traditional irezumi look tailored for the upper arm and shoulder.
