Tat of the Week - Traditional Style Girl with Pierced Tongue

Sunday September 24, 2006
There are a lot of elements about this particular tattoo that I really like. If you click on the photo, you can view a larger version of it - take a look at the eyes. This isn't even a realistic portrait tattoo but those eyes are lifelike. I also like the neo-traditional style with the use of bold lines and bright color. This is an excellent piece of work from an excellent artist.

Hiram Cordero of 506 Tattoos and Piercings in Costa Rica has been contributing to this site for almost as long as I've had it, and his work is always a pleasure to showcase. If you're ever lucky enough to be vacationing in Costa Rica, I would high recommend visiting Hiram's shop. I don't usually endorse getting tattoos on vacation, but I know I would not pass up the chance to get some ink from this great artist!
