Kanji, Yin-Yang, and Ogham... oh my!

Shot of my new tat (right deltoid). The upper graphic is Ogham for strength, the bottom one means wisdom. The kanji is Japanese for "art" or "skill" (yes, we quadruple checked on the translation).

Simple yin-yang with the kanji placed on top. I "drew" the Ogham in Photoshop and used the "Arch" feature in Illustrator to create the circular effect. The Ogham were written in green ink - slightly darker than the kanji's color.

I think it kicks ass.

UPDATE: This picture of my tattoo was featured in 25 Astonishing Yin-Yang Tattoos on Slodive.com. Thanks for liking my tat almost as much as I do! :-D
