As I work in the tattoo.
I'm a versatile artist and I chose this work to continue the tradition of my family, indigenous from Venezuelans Ayamanes.
For me, the tattoo is to accompany people in the discovery of their adventure and identity. A private walkway.
Each tattoo has its own dignity, I respect all the choices. As
a professional, I reserve to myself the right to refuse the tattoo if I
consider the person to be not ready to have an indelible
mark on his skin.
I try to speak and study all the tattoos, from small flower to a full back. I take photos, notes, write e-mail, draws on the skin, all I need to find the means, also biblio research.
The tattoo is not a serial work.
A real tattoo isn't the choice of the tattoo artist, isn't the customer's choice. An
excellent tattoo is a artwork, it's like a child of the encounter
between two individuals who communicate and live a session.
Also, a real tattoo need time and work.
Each
tattoo is a project that needs to be lived in full consciousness and
while respecting the unity of a body modification, small or large subject have the same way. I
have made small tattoos that signify the death of a brother, and great I tattooed backs that celebrate the birth of a child.
It's not the size that makes a good tattoo.
A sign on body must be in harmony with the anatomy and it must make sense to the individual.
Next week, I will upload the images of recent months.

Tattoo Care
Soins tatouage
___________________________________________
Now, you have your fresh new tattoo, and you want to take good care of
it! From this point on, your artist is not responsible for any infection
or problems you may have with your tattoo if you don't take proper care
of it. It is very important that you follow these guidelines. A really
beautiful tattoo can turn into a disaster if the proper aftercare is not
taken.
Leave That Bandage Alone!
Your artist took the care to cover up your new tattoo for a very good
reason - to keep air-born bacteria from invading your wound. Yes, as
pretty as your new tattoo is, it is still a wound. Open flesh is a
breeding ground for bacteria and infection. Leave the bandage on for a minimum
of two hours. Excitement of having a new tattoo will make you want to
remove the bandage so you can show your friends, but your friends will
just have to wait until later.
The only exception to this rule is if your artist covered your tattoo with saran wrap
or some kind of plastic. This is extremely detrimental to a tattoo, so
it should be removed immediately. You're better off not having any
covering than to be suffocating your new tattoo with plastic wrap.
Wash and Treat
After you remove the bandage, you will want to wash your tattoo. Use
lukewarm water and mild, liquid antibacterial or antimicrobial soap (Satin and Provon
are my highest recommendations. Dial tends to be too harsh - generic
brand antibacterial soaps are actually better) to gently wash away any
ointment, blood and/or plasma and to completely clean the area. Do not
use a washcloth or anything abrasive. Your hand is your best tool in
this case. (If your tattoo feels slimy and slippery, you have probably
been oozing plasma. Try to gently remove as much of this as possible -
when the plasma dries on the skin surface, it creates scabs.)
Then pat (do not rub) the area firmly with a CLEAN towel or paper towel
to get it completely dry. Follow with a very light application of your
choice of ointment. A&D vitamin enriched ointment would be my first
choice, but if you don't have any, Bacitracin or a similar antibacterial
ointment is acceptable.
**Do not use Neosporin. This is a wonderful product
for cuts and scrapes, but not for tattoos. Some can have an allergic
reaction to the Neosporin, which causes little red bumps. When the bumps
go away, so does the ink, and you end up with a polka-dotted tattoo.**
Specialty Products and Lotions It's not
necessary, as many over the counter products work just fine, but it's
your choice. Use the products as directed as continue for 3-5 days.
After that, continue to keep it clean, but you can use lotion when
needed instead of ointment, to keep the skin soft. Whatever lotion you
use, it should be dye and fragrance free. A lot of artists recommend
Lubriderm, but I have found that Lubriderm stings when I apply it.
Instead, I have had great success with Eucerin. See also: Aftercare Contradictions: Why there are so many views on what product is best.
Bathing, Showering, Hot Tubs, and Swimming
Yes, you can (and should!) shower with a new tattoo. It's OK to get your
tattoo wet - just don't soak it. Submerging your tattoo in a bath or
hot tub can cause serious damage, so you'll want to avoid those for 2-3
weeks, but showering is perfectly fine as long as you don't saturate
your tattoo. If you get soap or shampoo on your tattoo, just remove it
quickly with water. Swimming - whether it be a pool, fresh water or salt
water - should be avoided for at least 2 weeks.
Scabbing and Peeling
After a few days, you will notice some peeling and possibly a little
scabbing. Excessive scabbing could indicate a poorly-done tattoo, but a
little is sometimes normal and there is no need to panic. Apply warm
moist compresses to the scabs for about 5 minutes 2-3 times a day to
soften them and they will eventually come off on their own. (Do not
apply ointment or lotion to a softened scab - wait for it to dry) You
will also start to itch, just like a sunburn when it begins to heal. The
advice here is, don't pick, and don't scratch! If the skin
itches, slap it. If it is peeling, put lotion on it. And if it is
scabbing, just leave it alone. Your tattoo is almost healed, and now is
not the time to ruin it!
Protection from the sun
After your tattoo is healed, from now on, you will always want to
protect it from the sun's ultraviolet rays. These can fade and damage a
brilliant tattoo very fast. Before spending a lot of time in excessive
heat, protect your tattoo with a minimum 30SPF sunblock. This will keep
your tattoo vibrant for many years, and it will continue to be a source
of great pride.

Si
la séance de tatouage est terminée, le travail reste à achever, et
c'est le porteur du tatouage qui en est désormais responsable. Les
soins et les précautions accordés au
tatouage dans les jours suivant sa réalisation ont autant
d'importance que les conditions dans lesquelles il a été effectué.
Les meilleures conditions d'hygiène du tatoueur peuvent être
réduites à néant si le tatoué ne respecte pas à la lettre ses
recommandations durant les jours et les semaines qui suivent.
La peau vient de subir une effraction cutanée qui, bien que superficielle, est alors exposée à un risque de complications.
Complications qui peuvent survenir en mettant la plaie
en contact avec des éléments irritants ou infectieux. Toucher
une peau fraîchement tatouée avec des mains sales, la plonger dans la
mer ou à la piscine, ou encore porter des vêtements
en laine ou en nylon sont autant d'exemples pouvant mettre en
péril la bonne guérison d'un tatouage.
Des erreurs qui risquent fort d'endommager le tatouage,
nécessiter des retouches, et contrarier vivement le tatoueur... Les
retouches sont généralement comprises dans le prix du
tatouage, mais si le professionnel estime que son client a
délibérément passé outre ses conseils, il est susceptible d'appliquer un
supplément pour le coût de cette retouche (temps de
travail, encres, consommables, etc.). Une raison
supplémentaire pour être attentif aux soins de son tatouage.
LE SECRET D'UNE "CICATRISATION" RÉUSSIE
Lorsqu'on se coupe accidentellement, la peau blessée entame un
processus de cicatrisation comportant une phase inflammatoire (qui
permet l'exsudation et la coagulation pour défendre la
plaie contre l'infection), une phase de prolifération (avec
formation d'une croûte), puis une phase de maturation (la croûte tombe).
La qualité de la guérison de ce type de plaie
accidentelle dépend d'une bonne activité cellulaire,
donc d'une bonne santé, d'un bon état général, et de l'éventuel
traitement appliqué afin de réguler ou de stimuler les
différentes phases de la cicatrisation.
Dans le cas d'un tatouage, ce traitement a pour but
d'empêcher la formation de croûte et donc de cicatrice, afin d'obtenir
la meilleure tenue possible des pigments. C'est
pourquoi il est singulièrement différent de celui appliqué à une plaie accidentelle. Le secret d'un tatouage bien "cicatrisé" réside donc dans le maintien de la plaie dans
l'exsudat (de la phase inflammatoire), ce qui évite la formation de croûte et accélère la vitesse de cicatrisation.
LES PREMIÈRES HEURES
La séance de tatouage est terminée. Après avoir nettoyé la
plaie avec une solution antiseptique, le tatoueur applique vaseline ou
crème cicatrisante (type Bepanthen®,
Easytattoo®, Clean Tattoo®, Homéoplasmine®, Cicatryl®, etc.)
sur laquelle il pose un pansement (film plastique, compresses ou gaze,
et sparadrap).
Ce pansement a pour but de protéger la plaie durant les
premières heures : la durée de pose de cette protection est indiquée par
le tatoueur (on recommande généralement de garder ce
pansement au moins deux à six heures, l'objectif étant que les
saignements cessent définitivement).
Attendre une première nuit pour retirer le pansement permet de
prévenir tout rejet d'encre et de liquides, si minime soit-il.
Dans le cas des compresses, le pansement peut être un peu
"collé" : il suffit de l'imbiber préalablement d'un peu d'eau tiède.
Le tatouage est alors nettoyé -sans frotter- à l'eau tiède et
au savon (antiseptique ou non). Il n'est pas nécessaire d'appliquer
immédiatement la crème de soins indiquée par le
tatoueur : la crème cicatrisante peut être appliquée le
lendemain seulement, sur une peau propre et sèche (pour sécher,
tamponner doucement avec un linge propre et doux).
Sauf indication contraire du tatoueur, il est préférable de
laisser le tatouage à l'air libre (ne pas le recouvrir avec un nouveau
pansement).
LES PREMIERS JOURS
Effectué dans les meilleures conditions d'hygiène, le tatouage
est une plaie aseptisée, donc non contaminée. L'application d'un savon
ou d'une solution antiseptique n'est de fait pas
nécessaire, mais peut toutefois être recommandée durant les
tous premiers jours selon l'environnement dans lequel on évolue :
exposition à la poussière, travail dans un milieu pouvant
favoriser la prolifération bactérienne, etc.
La première nuit passée, on ôte définitivement le pansement
afin de laisser respirer le tatouage. Toutefois, dans certains cas, et
en fonction des
recommandations du tatoueur, de la partie du corps encrée, et
des activités du tatoué (travaux salissants, exposition au soleil,...),
un pansement
adapté pourra être posé pendant la journée.
Après avoir nettoyé sa peau avec un savon classique (si
possible au PH neutre) ou un savon antiseptique, bien sécher (tapoter)
avec une serviette parfaitement
propre : La crème peut ensuite appliquée en couche fine. On
pensera notamment aux vêtements... que l'on préfèrera amples et en coton
(bannir laine, Nylon et autre acrylique !). Lorsque c'est possible, on laissera la partie tatouée à l'air libre.
Le temps que les croûtes apparaissent puis disparaissent (8 à
15 jours), la crème est appliquée 1 à 2 fois par jour, toujours avec les
mains préalablement
lavées.
HYGIENE ET PRÉCAUTIONS
Il faut éviter de toucher la zone tatouée avec des mains sales et veiller à se laver les mains avant chaque application de produit sur la
peau tatouée.
Les bains, la piscine, la mer sont à proscrire pendant la durée de la cicatrisation (minimum 15 jours).
Cela ne signifie pas qu'il faut se dispenser de laver le
tatouage pendant la cicatrisation ! Il ne faut pas oublier que l'hygiène
de la partie
tatouée est importante pour une bonne cicatrisation. Laisser
la "plaie" plusieurs jours sans nettoyage augmente les risques
d'infection.
Bannir également le soleil et les UV en institut pendant au moins un mois. Le soleil est un des pires ennemis du tatouage : avant même le risque de coup de soleil, une
hyperpigmentation peut provoquer des tâches brunes irréversibles lorsque la peau est en pleine régénération.
Enfin, on évitera autant que possible la poussière et le
contact avec les mains, qu'il s'agisse des siennes ou de celles des
autres !
Les démangeaisons, souvent inévitables, réprésentent la
dernière difficulté à surmonter mais font partie du processus de
cicatrisation. Bien que la tentation soit grande, il faut
absolument se retenir de gratter ou frotter la peau tatouée.
Les peaux mortes doivent tomber d'elles-mêmes, pour éviter toute
cicatrice indésirable. Dans le cas contraire, on risque
fort d'abîmer le tatouage et causer un défaut flagrant, et
donc une séance de retouche chez le tatoueur.
Pour atténuer les démangeaisons, on pourra essayer de
tamponner délicatement la partie tatouée avec un linge humidifié à l'eau
froide...
Après cicatrisation complète, on peut "oublier" son
tatouage, mais si on pense à prendre soin de la peau qui le porte
(hydratation régulière et protection solaire maximum), il
n'en vieillira que mieux !
This is a difficult story to tell. The colonization of the Spaniards and the subsequent invasion of consumer values of North America have reduced considerably the tracks and practices related to indigenous traditions.
Every body modification practiced within the tribe is linked to the symbols, rites of passage or private social, collective amendments to the Statute of the individual. The moivi and symbols used are inspired by ntaura, plants, tissues, animals, insects, geometric patterns that can be seen in the clothes and dishes.
Currently, there isn't a true school of South American traditional tattoo, the tattoo is considered "South America style" when they copy marginalized symbols of groups such as Chicanos or gangs like the mala 13.
In contrast to the Maori or Polynesian culture in South America, there was a systematic extermination of the natives. The few that still survive take refuge small communities scattered and have not a representation that conveys their values abroad, beyond the borders.
The cultural richness of the various indigenous groups are protected and hidden by nature. The places where indigenous peoples are isolated, they are virtually uninhabitable for whites.
Only someone who comes from a family native can know the symbols and meanings; the books discussing this topic are extremely difficult to find.
I own these books and my family is indigenous.
Enjoi your skin!
The antiquity of man in Venezuela is between twenty and twenty-five thousand years. I get points and evolve on our soil for a long time. The
settlement primitive was made by a group carrying a nascent cultural
and typological, that hardly differs from the Palaeolithic Old World.
The
Ayamanes or guayamanes (ayama or yama or wayama) according to
historians, is a bias of Ajaguas (achaguas) which, in turn belonged to
the family of the Arawak.The
Ayamán Aboriginal territory, extending to the present municipalities of
Falcón State, Democracy, Sucre, federation, Union and Silva, and which
corresponds to the state were from Rio Tocuyo Lara and Atarigua old
(where it was kept for a long time bodyguard
habit of playing with his hands and finding Olicores Easter time, the
Ayamanes inheritance) to the Sierra de Parupano through Bobare Duaca and
municipalities in Iribarren, Torres, Crespo and Urdaneta.The Rio Tocuyo around the farthest limits, mainly north and west of the territory. Towards this river, fertile banks of many streams converged to Ayamanes irrigated agricultural areas.
All
saw Parupáno and its foothills, was rich in woodland, jungle, suitable
for agriculture and husbandry, rich in water resources formed by streams
rushing streams and current permanent or much of the year.
Especially in the mountains of Parupáno and areas of influence. The
rainfall, fairly regular in the area completed the optimal conditions
for farming and the existence of a wildlife abundant and varied. They
were so faithful to the spirits that each source was river, stream or
spring, had an owner, keeper or "elf" who watched their conservation.
The
German Nicolas de Federman, belonging to the commercial house or
Belsares Welsers I explore this territory in search of gold in the year
1530.y in his writings of "Indiana history," says the Ayamanes were
small people, and that saw
individuals no more than five inches (115 cm.) But I also saw people of
greater stature, and this was normal, inquired about the reason for
that difference to a plague that hit, in ancient times the people
Ayamán, which forced them to join in marriage with the Jirajaras people who inhabited the area now known as the Sierra de San Luis in Falcon State. They were the ones who informed on people Ayamán Federmann short stature.
Until
1950, more or less the majority of the inhabitants of the territory
Ayamán (Matatere triangle, Parupáno, Aguada Grande little more), were
white individuals or at most light brown, height from 1.60 to 175 cm. While
the presence of individuals lower, dark skin and Asian features was
zoned on the upper ridge of the Sale and Catalina, preserving even the
inhabitants of these sites this genotype.Mobility in its territory was one of the main features of the Ayamanes. Which
gave it a unique relationship with their environment, with nature,
flora, fauna, roads, water, earth and man formed a vital unity,
harmonious and fruitful between Ayamán and nature.The
collection of palms, honey and wax, and the presence of hunters, deer
horns or skulls and tribute pieces of hunting, survival suggest a people
far removed from collector and hunter. This
well established that they resolved their product needs with conucos
land they owned and worked regularly in Parupáno and Moroturo, where he
also took advantage of the heavy hunting of deer, tapirs, rabbits and
birds such.Collected throughout the fruit of certain wild plants to supplement their diet. In
cardonales of Mátatere enjoyed various fruits such as: data lefarias,
turkeys, swish, Cotoperiz, suckers, semerucos and Maya. Of the conucos obtained mainly maize, but also cassava, sweet potatoes, yams, tubers and grains. Delcocuy seized the head and part of the leaves, which baked for consumption, in addition to preparation of spirit drinks.In
Venezuela, the presence of agave occurs in much of the territory and
chroniclers expressly mentioned in the northeastern regions of the
country but their use for the production of liquor from fermented baked
stalk, is located in the Lara and Falcon States, mainly in occupied lands, from 20,000 to. C. by Ayamanes and their descendants today, twenty-first century.The
relationship with his Indian Ayamán plant world was very close and rich
in possibilities for use with fiber cocuy (dispopo) and sisal hammocks
made of various woods were built the cannon to the roof, and barbecues
trojas to save the corn and nuts. They also made wooden stools, bowls, spoons, tools, hunting and war bows arrows and clubs. In some plants using roots, bark, seeds, fruits and leaves for medicine.With some elaborated fiber hats. Also got to dye inks threads of the fabric and body ornaments. Fruits for protection against hazards of land or supernatural. Built of bamboo musical instruments (flutes). Its low-rise houses were built near the current natural waterholes or wells. With
the arrival of the Spanish, came the introduction of livestock to the
economy, to add to his house a small pen for raising goats. They besides being successful farmers, also exercised the arts of war and had to do some organizing and habits:
This
tribe preserved with tenacity even after their civilized language and
subject, so that their descendants were conserved between phrases and
terms that were the basis for the linguistic study of that dialect,
which leads us to the conclusion that spoke a language Ayamanes corresponding to the family and related Tupi Guarani therefore of Paraguay and Brazil. The
very name suggests the Ayamanes Brazilian provenance, which we believe
is Anang corruption and Anna, two words mean respectively Guarani devil
and relatives. We assume that this name was given by his enemies, alluding perhaps to his ferocity. Although
some scholars in the field have said in that language means Ayamán
Indian husband or male head of household, as among the Indians Ayamanes,
women had a significant presence and his opinion was consulted equal
value to that of men. His
presence among the retinues of the chieftains Ayamanes when
interviewing Federmann us that were not people high in the tribe.The language of the AyamanesThis
is collection of many works, among them poet and chronicler
publications IribarrenRamón Querales Township, and the unpublished book
of Mr. Ramon Pacheco, Geography and History of Urdaneta District.We
have drawn from these studies conducted before and after 1900,
especially among the native population of San Miguel de los Ayamanes,
highlighted among connoisseurs who brought this knowledge the head or
chief of the Indians Ayamán (not ) Pascual Ramos and Maria del Rosario Torin (Both lived more than 100 years and kept lucid until his last days). And in the village of El Cacique Docore Dobobuto Antonio.In
the vocabulary described here, there are usually words that are spelled
different but sound very similar and mean the same, this is the result
of the transcription of words by different investigators as they
sounded, because these dialects had no spelling defined or at least known. Example:Liquor Cocuy. Yugos. Yugu, yugús, yoke, iugu, jugular or Tugu. Cocuy Ingui baking.
Most
likely among Yugu, which would mean that if the jugular, as indeed it
is, is a liquor belonging to culture Ayamán North larense and south
falconiano. According
to the chronicler of the poet Ramon Querales Barquisimeto, the word
cocui with who knew the Spanish sixteenth century and modern as it is
called is not in the language Ayaman, it is safer because this name was
taken from the name of cocui
ancient Indians, who probably then call them Cayones, Cuyones, Gallons,
Gayones, a Spanish word meaning under very pejorative applied to rogues
and people of dubious or dishonest conduct. Neither
in 1886 when General Juan Tomas Perez published a vocabulary of
indigenous voices gathered in Siquisique, then arbitrarily classified as
belonging to the language Jirahara, nor in 1910, when Alfredo Jahn met a
set of voices in Bobare, allegedly belonging to the language of the
Cayones and San Miguel de los Ayamanes formed another of the Indians
that ancestrally had filled this place, nor in 1916 when Luis R. Oramas,
in turn did the same in Bobare and San Miguel de los Ayamanes, or
voices organized by Dr. Rafael Freitez Pineda with that supplied the
siquisiqueño Buenaventura Jiménez, gathered by him and Jose del Carmen
maramara, nor those of different fronts copied Father Pedro Francisco Rojas in 1937 being Bobare cure. In none of these vocabularies cocui voice appears informants recognized as belonging to the language they spoke. Probably INGUÌ.-source router.
We actually mbchi Guarani word meaning roast sewn. If we put the particle will, as we have seen means water and liquor, liquor imbivhi we cooked, it is possible to come inguinal. The concept of cooking liquor cocuy corresponds well to baking, squeeze it enough to get a tasty liquid.
Testing The names given to this plant in different latitudes are firefly named for the Gayones, maguey, voice Taino in Haiti in Mexico was metl, in Ecuador Cabuyo, black Cabuyo, nag or chaguar, in Peru chara, chuchao, pacpa , Pinca, mara, Quechua voices, among others, besides maguey q'ellu pangarita in Bolivia, in Aymara and Quechua p'ajra Chunta also shit and witica.
In Venezuela, the presence of agave occurs in much of the territory and chroniclers expressly mentioned in the northeastern regions of the country but their use for the production of liquor from fermented baked stalk, is located in the Lara and Falcon States, mainly in occupied lands, from 20,000 to. C., for Ayamanes and their descendants, XXI century, however of which can not fail to observe that in the historical sources, the beverage from the leaves of the agave baked, they are linked to other related information Cocuy Indians, from the sixteenth century called Lara, Cayones.
