진흙 속에서

The lotus petals have that classic Japanese shading, and the linework sits clean around my ankle bone without wrapping awkwardly. Three weeks in and it's healed nicely.

The linework on the lotus petals is way cleaner than I expected for an ankle piece, and the shading has held up perfectly after two months. It sits right where my sock line hits, so I forget it's there until I look down.

The lotus sits perfectly on my ankle, and the traditional Japanese linework gives it a sharp, clean look. It lasted about a week and a half before fading, which felt right for a temporary ink. Wish the petals had a bit more shading, but the meaning makes up for it.
