神の子 kami no ko Child of God

神の子 is a child of God. In Christian use it is first the Son of God, Jesus Christ, and it also names any Christian as a child of God. 子 does not mark number, so the phrase can also mean children of God. Said of a gifted young person, it means a prodigy.

The Japanese phrase 神の子 meaning "Child of God" is composed of the words God (kami) and 子 (read ko) meaning "child; children".

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. The line art prints sharp at any size. The brushed image is sized to print at the dimensions shown on the PDF, so for a larger piece, work from the line art.

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.
