I recently began work (well, Julie did all the work) on a calf piece. It's a Louisiana Heron, chosen for my love of long legged birds, the color purple, and trips to the Southern US. Julie at Adorn Arts drew the heron to fit my body and did incredible shading work to highlight the long feathers on this beautiful bird.
The above picture shows what it looked like at the end of the black and grey session on December 10, 2009. (More pictures in this flickr set.) I will go back for color in a few weeks.
My husband Alex is getting a similiar tattoo of a Great Blue Heron on the back of his calf soon. What love, to share ink.
