LA Ink - A Symbolic Trapped Owl

[OfficialBASH]

Hahah, Corey Didn't "Still Articulate It Real Good"

[xCassieSceneBabyx]

how beautiful!

[IRatatatI]

I want to get an owl tattoo but im not sure anymore because this guys owl tat has a lot more meaning to behind it rather than me just wanting an owl because they look awesome 

[Hellenrosehart]

@IRatatatI Yeah, same here, I wanted to get an owl because my name's Hedwig

[TheMetallicaMonster]

@DickhouseSkater probably a great horned owl.

[TheMetallicaMonster]

@DickhouseSkater probably a great horned owl.

[DickhouseSkater]

Can someone please tell me what kind of owl this is?

[theTHORNinMYheartO2]

that is so amazingly gorgeus!

[mirandadaviSON]

Where can I get a picture of this?

[Baller527]

@mirandadaviSON Where can you fuck off and think of your own tattoo ; tattoo stealer =O

[SuperJeepfreak]

I wish all tattoo shop treated you as good as they do. I just went to a shop today and the guy was an asshole.

[meechellekimms]

HE LOOKS LIKE RYAN GOSLING.

and an awesome tattoo, so symbolic

[MsGypsyBiker]

this is my favorite tattoo I've seen on LA Ink. The reason behind it is so beautiful

[theatomizer]

Wtf? I couldn't draw something this good with 3 hours and a pencil and paper..

[JRobinson610]

Cory = Tattoo God. This dude is amazing. such beauty. (I mean the owl not Cory).

[munchkiinbutt]

the eyes is cute

[SizzleMacTizzle]

Waaaaauuuw... that's amazing!!! It's SO beautiful. It stands out from all other tatoos. This is art!

[AyyyCeee]

damn. thats the best idea for a tattoo and one of the best looking tattoos i have ever seen. props to that guy and corey

[nnnnicolaaaa]

that looks fucking amazeballsssss

[ravien457]

Absolutely beautiful tattoo :)

[Nonithakur23]

wow i have got same tatt00 on my left arm



[zer0frk]

i want this on my arm!

[MiTsCoRe]

what the name of the intro song?

[AHebrewGypsy]

i wish i could draw

[desensitized87]

@AHebrewGypsy i wish i could immagine! i'm a great drawer but i'm only good at drawing peoples faces and stuff... when it comes to find something to draw for myself... i have no inspiration!! i wish i had more immagination!

[zainadlr]

The guy was awesome.

[thephantomerik]

It turned out nice in the end, but I'm surprised the guy liked it. He said he wanted it to be realistic-looking, and he also said he wanted it to look like the owl was tangled or trapped, and the tattoo is really cartoony, and Corey drew just one branch in front of the owl, which isn't really trapping it.

[h0b0ch1c]

@thephantomerik I'm surprised you're surprised. you seem a bit trapped and cartoonish. ;)

[MegaDriveMat]

this guys relationship with his family is amazing i look at my sister and just think annoying spoilt cow and i cant really think about thinking of her any other way its amazing how hes allowed himself to get so close to a person and yet if i though about getting that close to my sister i cringe in awkwardness

[gamefreak22574]

@MegaDriveMat i hear ya lol

[whazawhaza]

i wanna slap teh youtube commercials..

[r1dd3l3r]

[BIKER676]

Thats a great tattoo. Such a great reason. Your a good brother man. You got my respect.

[VermillionXAngel324]

no lie thats pretty inspiring, usually the No.1 rule of tattoos is dont get one for someone else (like a boyfriend/ girlfriends name) but thats something different, he's alright in my book.

[ciaracustard]

I wish I could find a really nice boyfriend whose as loving as that guy.

[BritKid94]

The don of all brothers. And the don of all tats to go with him, nice.

[RawrInk]

[BaByXgIrL]

Sweet crap, this is one of the most gorgeous tattoos I have ever seen. <3

[wganswgg]

Beautiful tattoo with a beautiful reason.

[DeathCabLoverx3]

Wow first of all he tattoo is INSANELY good, I can't even get over it.

The story behind it is heart breaking too, I think it's beautiful.

[Wantednewspaper]

This tattoo is amazing. And the story.. what a nice guy.

[MurphyDogification]

I love this tattoo! Not only the design itself, but the symbolism behind it. I'd love to get an owl tattoo someday.

[MICHINATOR1]

[celesteschizophrenia]

What a beautiful tattoo.

[ChoChoquota]

how come there's no blood?

[Ranstrom1988]

@ChoChoquota it can be blood there, but you dont see it because of the black colors. everyone bleed different depending on how thick or thin our blood is at the time =) so it is very individual and it would not look good on TV with a bloody arm, I guess..=)

[ChoChoquota]

@Ranstrom1988 thanks!

[VelvetRevolverMother]

yeah that tattoo is gorgeous

[DanielleStacyy]

whhhhathefuck that looks so like reaaaal! gah amazing!

[velvetturtles]

[Coffeecum]

This was one of my most favorite tattoos they did on the show, and its hands down my favorite Corey tattoo.

To live and die in L.A. Ink

[danceingqueen246]

thats fucking wicked.

[Dustnbones213]

Fuck you, ass wipe. Go fuck yourself and get that stick out of your ass, unless you're into that stuff. Fuck you, get a life.

[madcapper6]

Look at the drawings in the backround.

[steveraff01]

Thats a pretty awesome tattoo

Thinkin of getting an owl myself

[stephxx88]

Loved it!

[Duipanema]

[boybettaknowspecial]

"he articulated it real good..."

[GesadiaH]

one of the best ive seen...

[RatherRadioactive01]

My god that is one of the most beautiful tattoos I've ever seen... So inspiring :-)

[emopixievampire]

that is beautiful, and the reason behind is also beautiful

[Melaisis]

Awesome. Wasn't sure about the colour, but its a great design regardless. Moreover, he had a great reason behind it. Better than the usual 'IM GETTING A BIRD TO REPRESENT FREEDOM'.

[lalejandralale]

its not "sad" its reality.. my bro has something similar.. and iv been thinking about getting my 1st tattoo soon.. but wasnt sure what of.. im definitely getting somehthing to represent him and how much he has taught me...

god this brought tears to my eyes...

[rottencande]

soooo dope

[19MrRastafari95]

i know what he means, my cousen has the same thing. I want to get something similar.

[nicolieOH]

damn...symbolism is sucha beautiful thing

[dannellster]

that is an awesome tattoo!.. really like it

[perothing]

pure art

[minxybluebird]

this a gorgous tattoo and a good reason for getting a tattoo

[jamesCH3W]

thats soo sad

[PerfectChloe]

This is great!

He's such an awesome tattoo artist and that guy himself came up witch such a great idea!

I love it x

[emohairstylist]

corey is one experienced tattoo artist. he blows me away man.. i mean within less than a half hour? coming up with something like that? impromptu and improvisation is beyond words:)

[XOGoldFingerOX]

oh man Corey tattooing soo fast!!

thats crazy, and it looks like he ink not really deep ....o.O

[cinnamonmuffins0718]

whoa, th owl looks really cool, but yea, it doesn't look like its trapped or smth. nice though.

[fallenangel3001]

Nice tattoo dont get me wrong but the owl dont look trapped to me!! its just sitting in a tree and looks like it could fly away at any moment..... it needed more branches wrapped round and above to make it more caged in

[Didit4daLULZ]

Corey is really an amazing tattoo artist. LA Ink is so much better with him onboard.

[bobb328]

that's amazing, he's one creative guy for think of that. Great tat btw

[WoolehSocks]

Corey has to be one of the best tattoo artists I've seen. but honestly I imagined it to be as if the owl was being strangled by the tree, or trapped.

[aaaali90]

that tattoo is redonkulous!!! so awesome! the owl's eyes are amazing!

[AnnaRabea]

wow, this is so cool. It much better than this old-school boring stuff from miami ink. He takes it to the next level and put his soul in his tattoos. You can almost feel it. i am pretty impressed.

[TheGunit78]

As an adult with LD, that piece is very inspiring!!

[itsssannie]

wow that was an amazing piece of art. wow i am just totally blown away

[karrie1602]

awesome

[xChlott]

wow thats amazing.. ;o

[mcfat89]

the tattooist slipped at 2:29 but still nie tattoo

[zer0frk]

he had too

the branch was too straight and not enough of that tree curve

[SerialThrillr]

nah, it's more of a freehand tree. so a little slip doesn't matter.

[zer0frk]

thats an insane peice

[girlingreensocks]

that is deep luv it

[KoRnOtEp666]

trees r rly good tattoos. i myself prefer tribal stuff, and really abstract things, but trees look really cool as tattoos

[Laithland]

amazing tattoo, great meaning!

[kevkevinkev]

O Rly?

[velocityoftime]

that is such a gorgeous tattoo.

[Dnnle]

wow that is an amazing tat

[13xxSKATERxx13]

the same with my brother

[Takifun]

I really like this idea.This guy is deep, like bed bugs in your sheets.

[madalin11111]

OMFG! COOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

[Shaunmcdowell]

That is an increadible tattoo. I'm so jealous.

[themasterofducttape]

how expensive is he? i want a tree coming up my ribs and part way into my chest. and i wanna know prices

[F3RR3LL04]

Well i will say that it would be better if you could talk to him, personally instead of asking over thet net. The reason is because, name tattoo artist have differen prices, and different critereria, about what a person is going to get tattooed.

Contact him, and let him know what you want, and he will give you a price..=]

[HEDNOKKA35]

cool reason for the tat

[KevxMeister]

i really liked this one.

[gentamasu]

[cynthiacheese14]

[chrissyisabelle]

WOW!

[xXLILRedIzDeaDXx]

this guy is so sweet and i love the idea and the end result of his tattoo

[whatsarahsaid3]

beautiful symbolism.

[mychemaddict1]

that was way cool of him to think about his sister and get something that meant so much tattooed on him forever was pretty awesome

[hotpinkconverse13]

WOW! That symbolism was awesome! I probably wouldnt of even thought of that.

[blacktigerwu]

That's what i love about real Tats is the meaning behind them I don't dig people who get em just for trend and fashion.

[jjjkkk999]

well said :)

[ReligionSickensMe616]

you dont need a story to get a tattoo if you like something get it its art not all the pictures in a house have a meaning you get them cos u like them. ive got a demonic image on my calf it has no meaning just the fact a friend drew it for me and i liked it it .doesnt mean its any less good than one that has some sad story behind it and i aint guna make up some bullshit meaning to try and justify it to others

[blacktigerwu]

I started not to respond but no where in my comment did I say you had to have a meaning I said I like tats with meaning and I don't care about your meaningless tattoo obvious you didn't either.

[justsmile09]

he would make a great boyfriend.

i'm just saying.

[seabury]

Agreed.

[antakapchung21]

i want me a owl...lol
