The crest of the Harringtons has the sigil of a square knot, represented in the front and center of this Celtic knot leg wrap tattoo design. The clan motto "Nodo firmo" means "in a firm knot" and in this pattern the weave continues accurately even as it opens up to include the central pattern. I enjoy making unique and custom patterns for my clients that include personal symbolism.
Heart Snake tattoo design
Melding several elements, a knotted snake with a knotted heart, balanced with triquetras, making a unique arm band.
Two views of a Phoenix tattoo
Two views of a phoenix, interesting to see the blackwork underneath the color. Because those bright colors are fugitive and most likely to fade, I was trained to always do a full black and grey tattoo under the color. That way if the person lives long enough to have their color fade away they still have a nice tattoo. Old school.
Tribal Style Fractal-Ringed Labyrinth
A tribal-style fractal-ringed labyrinth, drawn by my client, a unique vision that was fun to install. Always a pleasure to collaborate to bring someone's vision to life in skin.
