Dragon tattoo designs - part 1

This free tattoo design is called "dragon of quiet creek". It feels like clouds floating in the sky, and a Chinese dragon is hidden in it. This work and this person surprisingly match. The artist and client have an amazing interaction.

This free tattoo design is about Chinese dragon. The Chinese dragon is a mythical, long, scaled, snake-like creature with four claws, in contrast to the Western dragon which stands on four legs and which is usually portrayed as evil, it has long been a potent symbol of auspicious power in folklore and art.
Chinese dragon is very common tattoo design. However, this one has its own style. Look at how angry it looks- it is on fire!!

Half chest half shoulder dragon tattoo by Andy Shou
This tattoo design is one of my favorite- so powerful. One big concern about big tattoo is how to fit the art on body appropriately. It is normal for a paint to be like this but rare for a tattoo.
