Crazy Art Tattoo

Tattooing has been a Eurasian practice at least since around Neolithic times. Ötzi the Iceman, dating from the fourth to fifth millennium BC, was found in the Ötz valley in the Alps and had approximately 57 carbon tattoos consisting of simple dots and lines on his lower spine, behind his left knee, and on his right ankle. These tattoos were thought to be a form of healing because of their placement which resembles acupuncture.[19] Other mummies bearing tattoos and dating from the end of the second millennium BC have been discovered, such as the Mummy of Amunet from ancient Egypt and the mummies at Pazyryk on the Ukok Plateau.[7]
Pre-Christian Germanic, Celtic and other central and northern European tribes were often heavily tattooed, according to surviving accounts. The Picts were famously tattooed (or scarified) with elaborate dark blue woad (or possibly copper for the blue tone) designs. Julius Caesar described these tattoos in Book V of his Gallic Wars(54 BC).
Various other cultures have had their own tattoo traditions, ranging from rubbing cuts and other wounds with ashes, to hand-pricking the skin to insert dyes.
Tattooing in the Western world today has its origins in Polynesia, and in the discovery of tatau by eighteenth century explorers. The Polynesian practice became popular among European sailors, before spreading to Western societies generally.


First day of Chinese New Year 23 January 2012, I had my 4th tattoo at Crazy Art Tattoo, Batu Pahat Johor. I wasn't aware that the boss, the tattoo artist is actually my neighbour. Awesome, I had a great time doing my tattoo the Peony. It was painful but that is the kind of pain I am looking for. Sounds insane but for real, I swear it.

Maybe I think I am gonna get more tattoos done. Especially the one to cover up my stupid scar on my left thigh.




Look at the blood. Bleeding still but no worries, not painful at all.

The work starts




Peace! This is the 2nd day of Chinese New Year, accompany my brother to get his tattoo done this time round.

The Peony meant to cover the rose tattoo of mine



Wanted to do the peony in Pink colour but can't be able to as my original blue rose tattoo was in dark colour. So I have to get my peony done in dark colour also.
