It was a day for the dads.
Jack Keating and his father Ronan have a love for many things but it is their love of tattoos that had the pair enjoying a bonding day from the comfort of Ronan’s home.
If you’re gasping and thinking he did it himself, don’t worry, he brought the pros in to get the job done. It was obvious from the intricate detail in the tattoo that the ink took hours to complete, so it was just as well Jack had his dad there to chat to, keeping him occupied for the duration.
This isn’t Jack’s first tattoo by any stretch of the imagination, some of his previously added art includes a bird shaped wing on his right arm and the phrase What Is Meant For You Won’t Pass You Buy across his chest.
Jack hasn’t revealed the meaning or if there even is a meaning behind his new ink but it appears to depict a number of Japanese elements including cherry blossoms and a large dragon. The central design involves an inverted triangle with a mountainous landscape visible inside.
Jack took to Instagram to show off the final result, captioning the post “finished product” and tagging the artist, Gemma Barton in thanks.
He then reposted Gemma’s business page, where she thanked the Keating’s for welcoming her into their home, and called her “the best in the business”.
Gemma thanked the Keating’s saying: “I had the pleasure of tattooing at Ronan Keating once again (it’s been almost a year)…And this time I also added a jap dragon to Jack Keating’s arm to close off a lower sleeve too (who sat like a champ btw).”
Adding: “Sam and I had a gorgeous day with the Keating tribe including Storm and Missy not to mention little Coco and Cooper who are quite the artists in the making! Thank you for looking after us and welcoming us into your beautiful home. You absolutely gorgeous bunch.”
