大志 taishi Ambitious

大志 is a great ambition, a far-reaching hope for the future. Japanese speaks of holding one, the way English speaks of cherishing an ambition.

The Japanese word 大志 meaning "Ambitious" is composed of the kanji 大 (read tai) meaning "big; large" and 志 (read shi) meaning "aspirations; hopes; desires; motive; intention, plan".

Each design is Master Japanese Calligrapher Eri Takase's hand-brushed calligraphy of the word or phrase on this page, delivered as a PDF you can print. Every PDF includes the line art, so a tattoo artist or a craftsperson can work from the outline as well as the brushed image.

Your purchase includes a personal-use license: use the design as a tattoo reference, frame it, engrave it, print it for yourself, or make it into a gift. For more information see Licensing, which also covers commercial-use options that may be purchased separately.

Your PDF is available for download the moment your order completes, and a copy is attached to your emailed receipt.

If you need your design again later, ask us for it and we will send it.
