Benzaiten Riding a Dragon
There are many different designs of Benzaiten, but this is one of
my favorite designs and I have tattooed it on many women.
It is a very popular design with people who work at or around the sea.
Many people pray to her for safety at sea, bountiful catch and good
luck and many of these people choose this tattoo design.  It looks good,
fits the shape of the back well and colouring is beautiful and is therefore
a popular design.  There is a lot of turquoise in it.  Below is a tattoo where I made the dragon blue, and it matched the red and purple of Benzaiten's
kimono very well, and it is a tattoo i am very proud of.
