This tat is an excellent example of a traditional font-art tat combined with tribal tattoo images resembling ancient petroglyph stone carvings. The images are softer and exude island imagery translated by a modern artist.
The Hawaiian word, ‘ohana, translates to family, relative, kin group, or related. “Ohana holo’oko’a, ‘ohana nui: extended family, clan.” Inketh oneth.

I have for a couple of years wanted the tattoo of ‘Ohana’ whaich is part of my daughter & my family. This word is very special to me & I am going to get it done this weekend. I have been sitting on it for sometime, but I think its time for me. Just going to figure out the final designs tonight..I like the design on the website
