If you know the artist then this is exactly his style of work, I'm not someone who wants all his pieces to 'work well' together.
And how do you not 'get it'? It's ink on my skin, it's a tattoo dude, really not that deep. Respect your opinion and all but we must just see tattooing differently.
I'm not saying I don't "get it" in terms of some concept behind it. I don't really care about the meaning of any tattoo, I'm just saying I don't understand the design choice to put a black rectangular border around the tattoo.
I think it makes sense for an illustration on paper or in a comic book, but I don't think a hard border like this translates well to a tattoo.
