DINOSAURS ARE AWESOME!

At the end of June, I met Dana near Bowling Green in lower Manhattan. She shared this awesome tattoo on her thigh:

This cool tattoo features a trio of dinosaurs, a triceratops, a Tyrannosaurus rex and a velociraptor.

When I asked Dana why she chose a big dinosaur piece like this, she exclaimed, "Because dinosaurs are AWESOME! And, I love Jurassic Park."

She credited Ron Mor (@ronmortattoos) from Hand of Glory (@handofglorytattoo) in Brooklyn with this fun and cool tattoo.

Thanks to Dana for sharing her awesome dinosaurs with us here on Tattoosday!

Petra's Tattoo with Teeth

A couple weeks back, I was coming out of my office at 7 Penn Plaza when a woman named Petra walked by with this tattoo on her foot:

When I stopped her and introduced myself, she was happy to share it with us here on Tattoosday.

Petra explained that this is the skull of a Velociraptor. When I asked why this particular design for a tattoo, she elaborated:

"Velociraptor is my spirit dinosaur. They're small and quick and very vicious and I identify with that as a person ... I really like dinosaurs. When I was a kid, I wanted to be a rock-climbing paleontologist, so I knew it was something that I'd like, you know, for the rest of the time I have my skin on."

This is Petra's first tattoo, and she got it inked by Cheyenne Sawyer at Atlas Tattoo in Portland, Oregon.

Thanks to Petra for sharing this cool tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!
