She’s known for her love of intricate body art, having amassed over 15 tattoos since she was a teenager.
Now never-before-seen images of Angelina Jolie have surfaced showing the star being tattooed by ex Thai monk Ajarn Noo Kanpai alongside her estranged husband Brad Pitt in Siem Reap in Cambodia.
The Hollywood actress – who was directing her Netflix movie First They Killed My Father at the time in the country – had flown the tattoo artist from Bangkok to work on the symbolic inkings for her and Brad in February 2016.
During her visit last year, she acquired three new mystical sak yant back inkings from the Thai artist, a style which encompasses lines of script, geometric patterns and animal shapes.
Opting for an ancient handheld method, the artist used steel rods mounted with a surgical steel needle – which is deemed to be more painful but more accurate than a tattoo gun – to apply the tattoos to the skin.
