35 Charming Tattoos By Buoy That Might Steal Your Heart

Bored Panda reached out to Buoy to learn more about their creative process. The artist shared that they have loved drawing random doodles since childhood. "I always bring my little sketchbook everywhere, and filling it up with random doodles was one of my favorite things to do. One day, I realized that they resembled flash designs for tattoos. I thought someone might want to get a tattoo incorporating my doodles. So, I wanted to try!"

We asked Buoy what inspires their tattoo designs. The artist replied that it's cute, fun, and silly things in the world, especially if they are related to animals. "Most of them come from the internet recently, like memes!"

Buoy finds the most satisfaction in seeing their clients' smiles when they finally see their tattoos. It's a rewarding moment for the artist, knowing their artwork has brought joy to someone else's life. They see tattoos as more than just designs—they're personal connections that mean something special to the wearer.

Buoy's portfolio showcases a significant number of designs featuring frogs, which seem to have become somewhat of a signature for them. So, we were curious about the significance behind this choice.

"Basically, I love all kinds of animals, so I tried a lot of different types. For the frog, I love the mindless facial expression, like they have no idea what is going on. And I think a lot of my followers feel the same way! I get a lot of love for other tattoos as well, of course, but every time I post a frog tattoo, I receive a lot of likes on Instagram. More people want to get the frog tattoo from me, so I post more. That's what has happened so far! And of course, I’m really enjoying it."
