Celtic 'Guardian Band' Tattoo

Today's client chose a pattern that is most popular with military and police, the Guardian Band. But he's a custom drapery installer! Fortunately going up and down ladders has given him nicely developed legs to show it off in this calf placement.

Celtic 'Guardian Band' Tattoo by Pat Fish

In every society there have always been those who take it upon themselves to be guardians. Of the land, the society, and of those weaker and in need of protection. It is appropriate that the strong be marked with a visible celebration of their courage. This band is composed of patterns taken from the 7th century manuscript the Book of Kells.
