Made in the Philippines

This amazing tattoo is from Gerald Genus of Colorado Springs, CO. He covered the entire area of his back with Philippine map, Philippine sun and stars, flowers and the words “Made in the Philippines” (which is obviously the meaning of his tattoo) and “Mark 9.23″.

If you will look closely at the colors blue and red, you will see that those are made from dots. Imagine how delicate and hard it is doing Gerald’s tattoo?

This great job are done by Juan from Ink Splat tattoo & Hardman tattoo.

Opening Up To What He Missed

This tattoo has three symbols. The first one is the “Sampaguita” which is the National Flower of the Philippines. Second is the Philippine 3 Stars and a Sun. And lastly are the words “Family Forever” in Ambigram style.

According to Tyler from Boston, MA, he was adopted out of his Filipino family and he is recently opening up to what he had missed.

There was this song with lyrics “babalik ka din” that pertains to those Filipinos who are in abroad. The message is that no matter how far you are you’ll still be back to your homeland.

Same as what’s happening to Tyler right now. Looking back at your homeland is just as good as saluting proudly to what you really are.

3 Stars and a Sun, Sampaguita and Sarimanok

3 Stars and a Sun, Sampaguita flowers and Sarimanok are the designs of this tattoo by R. Hahn of Orlando, Florida.

Sampaguita is the national flower of the Philippines. It is white and star-like that symbolizes purity, strength, fidelity, dedication and devotion. On the other hand, Sarimanok is the Philippine name for chicken. It is a legendary bird of Maranao that is also their symbol of art.

The designs are just few of many symbolic pieces that Philippine art have. So come and explore great things and rich culture of the Philippines!

Inked at Lotus Land Tattoo, Vancouver BC, Canada

Notes from Rachael:

It’s far from done right now but it’s a tattoo of the haribon eagle, sampaguita, sun and stars, and my last name.

I hope she sends an updated photo once completed.

Sampaguita with azucena/tuberose flowers

Here a big rib piece from Danielle out of the San Francisco Bay Area. She recently ordered a custom Baybayin design to go down her back to match her existing rib piece. It features the national flow of the Philippines with azucena/tuberose flowers at the bottom. Rib tattoos are supposed to be very painful but sexy.
