I had always loved koi fish tattoo designs, having fond memories of the koi ponds in the Japanese gardens of San Francisco and San Jose. Later when I learned more about tattoos I became enamored with the idea of getting a koi tattoo - partly due to the symbolism and largely simply because I like koi fish.

I specifically asked the artist, Jason, to koi fish tattoo designs that was extremely bold and clear - not too complicated but instead something that would leap out at you when you look at it. While I love viewing ultra complicated & intricate Japanese style tattoo's I was aiming for something that combined that style while still clearly being about the koi - hence the size of the fish. What can I say, I like big tattoos, and this is a really big tattoo.
