Morgan and Elanna Share Their Cat-tastic Tattoos

Last summer, I popped into the Milk & Hops beer shop in Chelsea and started chatting with Elanna and Morgan, siblings who happened to be working there.

Morgan shared this really cool tattoo on his arm, a panther comprised of faces:

This was designed and inked by Teide (@teidetattoos), who was working at Alchemy Tattoo (@alchemytattoo) in Los Angeles.

Elanna and Morgan also had a pair of matching tattoos:

Elanna, whose tattoo is on the left, explained that she loves animals, and that there have always been cats in her life.

These matching pieces were done by Fan (@fantattoo531) at Gristle Tattoo (@gristletattoo) in Brooklyn.

Thanks to Elanna and Morgan for sharing their cool tattoos with us here on Tattoosday!

Liz's Resilient Palm

Back in June, at a doctor's appointment, I met Liz, who shared her really cool palm tree tattoo:

She got this because she loves "the resilience of palm trees," alluding, in part, to how they are able to withstand the worst storms when other trees splinter and blow away.

She credited the work to Baris Yesilbas (@barisyesilbas), who works out of Gristle Tattoo (@gristletattoo) in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

Liz showed me her palm tree after I commented on the Roman numerals on the outside of her arm, which she got to commemorate the year (2017) when she got married:

Naomi's Mandala, Plus Two More

Last week I was picking up a pie from Nino's, one of the better pizza places in my neighborhood, when I met Naomi, who was standing, waiting for her order. She shared this lovely mandala tattoo on the back of her neck:

Naomi later emailed me the details, and included a couple of extra photos of some of her other work. She explained:

"The woman who tattooed me is Sarah Herzdame from Germany and is currently tattooing in Berlin [at Erntezeit Tätowierungen]. She should be out here again in August at Gristle Tattoo [in Williamsburg, Brooklyn]. Her Instagram is @tilldthtattoo. Her email is on there too.

I've gotten two other tattoos at Gristle Tattoo. One by a man named Felix and the other by a woman named Anka. Felix's Instagram is @felixvayner and Anka's is @ankalavrivtattoo. 

Felix did the leaves, Anka did the cat. I got both of those on their Friday the 13th event and they were both $31. They had different sized tattoos for $13, $31 or $130 and had their local artists doing tattoos and a guest artist in as well from I believe Japan."

Thanks to Naomi for sharing her tattoos with us here on Tattoosday!
