“Polynesian art is a form of humbleness and soothes the mind and soul,” says tattoo artist Anthony J. Tenorio. Perfect for these days where creativity and self expression are so important.
In the traditional art of TATAU, each tattoo is filled with symbolism and composed to relate uniquely to the individual. He began tattooing after college and under the mentorship of fellow TATAU artist Ricky Gaspar, he began creating this ancient art.

“I believe in the meanings for every individual symbol and what it represents, and to put it in a book and show people what I see and express passionately is a true blessing.” Anthony J. Tenorio.
