This is a half sleeve tattoo I designed for Bethany Wester. Bethany
asked me to design a tattoo from her sholder to elbow of a gypsy woman
with a sunflower and at least on bumble bee. She also wanted the words
"live, love, laugh" written on a banner flowing around the woman. Copyright www.samphillips.co.nz
This is an owl back tattoo I designed for
Tracey Hart. Tracey asked for the owl to "Look feminine, but not dainty
or cutesy, because it is a bird of prey after-all." The owl symbolises
her being strong through a tough time in her life. Copyright www.samphillips.co.nz
This is a zombie lower leg sleeve tattoo I designed for Marcio Pacheco.
Marcio asked for me to design it as though it was a zombie movie set. Copyright www.samphillips.co.nz
I designed this full back piece tattoo for Valentin Hogea. It relates to
a near-death experience he had a couple of years ago, which struck him
quite hard. And he really saw life with different eyes. Valentin also
wanted me to work in a "modern" Hansel and Gretzel and stained glass
window theme into this design. Copyright www.samphillips.co.nz
This is a half sleeve day of the dead tattoo I designed for Adam Rule.
It was designed to cover under the upper arm also. (The Skull Part of
the design) Copyright www.samphillips.co.nz
