Ive been wanting a half sleeve reef tattoo for about 2 years now so I finally got it started. I havent seen any reef tattoos that I like so I wanted to make sure it was really well done. I went to Axis Tattoos here in Corpus and spoke with Joseph who besides tattooing for the past 18 years studied and got a degree in marine biology and worked at the marine institute in Port A for awhile, how perfect! We printed out dozens of pictures and scaled them to size and played around with different scenes and came up with what is on my arm; all caribbean and it will all be in black and grey, no color.

I still have at least two more sessions to do on it, the next one is Wednesday.
