Hail Mary prayer
April 26, 2009 by Christian · 8 Comments
This beautiful looking tattoo (She looks like Reese Witherspoon) is the Hail Mary prayer in Baybayin. The translation was probably sourced from the “1st” book printed in the Philippines, the Doctrina Christiana in 1593. Some say that’s when Baybayin was used as a tool to control us and therefore inappropriate as a “tribute” tattoo unless your OK with being a conquered people. What do you think?

PS: Sorry for the sparse updates. I’ve been busy preparing for the Spring/Summer Filipino Festival tour here in the San Francisco Bay Area. I have a couple of new products in store. Additionally, I’m in the process of hiring a blogging assistant.

Here’s a Baybayin translation and design I did for Carina. She wanted it long and sexy to go down her ribs. I think it came out well, especially the last character – “LA” with an extended tail.

Kayla from Las Vegas sends in a photo of her Philippine Sun and Stars back piece. She actually drew it herself. Good job.

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.
