Tattoo links
Ta Moko from Tamoko.org.nz
Ta Moko : Ben Te Hau McDonald is an Australian born tattooist of Euro/Maori
descent. He specializes in creating individually designed pieces of body art,
inspired primarily by Maori arts and Mythology. The tattoos are created in order to reflect important traits of the wearer, while simultaneously to beautify, enhance and flow harmoniously with the physical body. The tattoo is intended to confirm valuable aspects and truths of the self, in an aesthetic way, as a foundation upon which to manifest the wearer’s future.
