I got tattooed by the great Horitomo last week and snapped this picture while he was doing it. I love how much he’s preserved his Japanese culture in his own little space in the corner of State of Grace in San Jose’s Japantown. It was almost like a religious experience, and I feel that this picture conveys that.
