Oni and Koi Flow

Description

A bold forearm piece in Japanese-inspired linework featuring a grinning oni mask, koi fish swimming through waves, blossoms, and a shaded skull. The koi represents perseverance and transformation, while waves suggest life’s motion. The oni is worn for courage and protection, and the skull nods to mortality and change. The tattoo appears in progress, ready for shading to enhance depth and flow.
