Two hawks within a valley of pine, rock, and falling water.
This tattoo design places two hawks within a valley scene of pine, rock, and falling water.
Rather than a simple mountain landscape, I wanted to express the mysterious atmosphere of an East Asian valley — with mist, stone, pine branches, and a quiet vertical flow of water.
The upper hawk rests firmly on the rock, while the lower hawk follows the movement of the waterfall and waves.
Through the weight of the rocks, the soft mist between them, and the open space created by the pine branches, I wanted the sharp presence of the hawks to remain calm but clear.
When placed on the arm, the composition is meant to connect as one deep valley landscape.
