Signs and Symbols
from
Around the World and Across the Ages
Signs and Symbols is a collection of amuletic tattoos I've collected across the last ten years that I think make for great finger/hand tattoos. I've drawn from a huge variety of sources from Ancient Mesopotamia to 20th century North America, and tried to focus on simple archetypal ideas that will stand te test of time and hopefully endow the wearer with good fortune and wise insight!
I make these tattoos in the stick and poke style (no machines), and freehand (drawn directly onto the skin, no stencil). I tattoo in Winnipeg's historic Exchange District at Ritual Winnipeg, and if you'd like to discuss having anyt of these or similar tattoos made, please email me at bram_adey@hotmail.com
