Shoulder Tattoo Design with Tiki Face
I created this tattoo for a client who wanted a large tiki inside a sun as the main elements for the shoulder, but who didn’t want the final line of the tattoo to be straight.
Tiki design in a Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson style tattoo:
I created this custom tattoo for a client who wanted a warrior symbol, Tiki, and a family symbol (honu) as the main elements on the shoulder, a unique tattoo in a style similar to the Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson tattoos.
Many clients ask me to include Tikis in their custom tattoos, as symbols of power and protection. I usually place them on the chest, in chest and shoulder tattoos or full sleeve tattoos. Or, if it is only an arm or shoulder tattoo, as main design on the shoulder.
Depending on the Polynesian style required by the client, I include a Tiki design hidden within the tattoo.
Forearm Tattoo with Tiki (customer inked)

Polynesian Tattoo Symbols Meanings
There are dozens of Polynesian symbols that represent love, courage, couple/marriage, children, ancestors, rebirth, love… these are some of them, perhaps the ones I use the most according to the requests of each client and visitor to this website of custom tattoos.
