Japanese Hannya Mask with Peony Flowers
A striking Japanese-inspired tattoo featuring a fierce Hannya-style demon mask extending from the side of the neck toward the shoulder. The mask displays an intimidating expression with sharp fangs, exaggerated facial features and curved horns, creating a powerful supernatural appearance. Traditional Japanese ornamental details surround the mask, while a large blooming peony with layered petals and dark leaves decorates the shoulder and upper chest. Flowing shapes, smooth black and grey shading and subtle reddish tones enhance the depth of the composition. The design follows the natural contours of the neck and shoulder, blending traditional Japanese imagery with modern realistic rendering. The combination of the menacing mask and delicate flowers creates a dramatic contrast between aggression and beauty.

I'm Guilherme Virginello, better known as Gui, a Brazilian-Italian tattoo artist specialising in black and grey. I specialise in a variety of black and grey styles, including Chicano-inspired designs, realistic portraits, Greek statues, and religious imagery. I focus on depth, contrast, smooth shading, and fine details, creating pieces that stand out while rewarding a closer look. I believe every tattoo should be personal, so I take the time to understand each client's vision and make sure they feel comfortable throughout the process. My goal is to keep growing as an artist and create meaningful, high-quality tattoos that tell a story and last a lifetime.
