The lion motif has proven to be a very popular design for tattoos. I have created many variations on the theme to include the wording requested by different people -- usually the names of family members. This example reads "Hojatullah" in Arabic script. | |

The Arabic Script is the basis for one of the richest calligraphic artistic traditions in the world. The script is used in various forms to write Arabic, Persian (Farsi), Urdu, and several other languages. Historical forms, such as kufic, maghrebi, diwani, tuluth, nasta'liq, shekasteh are joined by a flourishing vocabulary of contemporary forms. Calligraphy commissions are welcomed for a wide range of uses, from body art to marriage certificates. To learn more, CLICK HERE |
