This Korean Tattooist’s Delicate Tattoos Will Make You Want To Get Inked ASAP

In South Korea, tattoos are still considered taboo, but ink artists like Hongdam (IG: @hongdamstudio) are helping to change that. His beautiful, minimalistic tattoos aren’t usually what most people think of when they picture a traditional tattoo. Instead of bold, black outlines and solid colours, Hongdam uses pen-like strokes and watercolour techniques to turn his clients into living works of art. Here are just some of his many gorgeous designs.
