New Zealand Fantail Tattoo by Matt Curtis

Carolyn’s New Zealand Fantail Tattoo by Matt Curtis

A beautiful New Zealand Fantail tattoo by our resident tattoo artist Matt Curtis for lovely client Carolyn. She came to Tribal Body Art looking for something more than just a typical New Zealand cliché tattoo.

I’ve lived here for over 20 years and wanted to have some connection with home. I remember the Fantails hopping around the garden at home and didn’t want the usual NZ cliché tattoo so I asked Matt Curtis to design a piece for me with the Fantails on a Pohutukawa tree.
