Tiger Time with Gordy Evelyn
If you needed proof that traditional Japanese tigers never get old, look no further than this stack of work from Gordy Evelyn. We've been sitting on these photos for a while and they deserve their own moment, so here's a quick showcase of some of our favourite tiger tattoos made by Gordy.
There's something so satisfying about the classic Japanese tiger motif; the rope-like muscle definition, the wind-blown fur, the wide eyes and gnashing teeth. Gordy's take on it hits all of those traditional notes while still feeling fresh piece to piece, whether it's bold and colourful or held back in moodier black and grey.
If you're after a tiger of your own, get in touch with the studio to see what Gordy's got coming up.
