Entomology

Life Imitates Art

With tattoos being such an individualized form of self-expression, there are many inspirations in the tattoo world. Symbolism can be found in hobbies, family lineage, people, places, nature, and animals. At Love Letters Tattoos, you will find that nature lends itself heavily to the subject of permanent art clients are after. Some of the most common are florals, butterflies, moths, and other insects. Fine line work allows the details of such creatures to come alive in the form of tattoos. Love Letters Tattoos is dedicated to excellently providing the most accurate portrayal of such insects via the field of entomology.

From Egg to Mounted Specimen

Entomology is the branch of zoology concerned with the study of insects. At Love Letters Tattoos, you will see a variety of taxidermy mounted butterflies, moths, and insects colorfully displayed on the walls of the shop. Jojo, the owner of Love Letters Tattoos, also runs and operates Entomology Effect to provide quality dried & mounted specimens. She rears her own moth and butterfly species from egg to caterpillar to adult. Once the insects naturally reach the end of their life cycle, they are relaxed and carefully mounted in a frame.
