The tattoo presents another vintage theme, but this time of a boombox hosting a joyful little bird on top of it. Besides the music tape run wild, the extensive use of orange is what gives the scene a bit more urban feel.

This is a depiction of a vast tree that branches off from a stable electric guitar root. The tattoo features an extensive use of color as the red and orange of the guitar blend into green. The entire guitar-tree edifice aims to connect, or indeed reconnect music with nature.

The first glance at the tattoo might convince that If anywhere the colors steal the show, it would be here.
