Celtic tiger tattoo
Raw power with perfect stripes. The tiger dominates Japanese and realism traditions alike — its face demands technical excellence and rewards it doubly. In Celtic, that reads as: knots without end.

Interlaced knotwork, spirals and zoomorphic designs from insular art — patterns with no beginning and no end. Celtic work demands geometric discipline: every strand must weave over-under-over consistently or the knot breaks. Deep heritage for those who carry it.
A tiger carries strength, courage against evil, passion — and Celtic's knotwork give that symbolism its voice. Placement matters too: this subject flows best on the upper arm / bicep, back, thigh.
