So today I am posting work not spotted in the streets, but work on the legs of Pete, who meticulously crafted this lovely piece on my upper back last year.
I snapped this shot of an old-school parrot on his left leg late last summer:

And then, last week, on January 2, while peeking on the Year of the Tiger hullabaloo at Thicker than Water, where he is tattooing when not at New York Hardcore, I photographed this cool bald eagle on his right leg:

with this skull in the eagle's talons:

Both tattoos were crafted by old-school Brooklyn tattoo artist Steve Delgado.
I thank Pete for his outstanding work, and for sharing some of his tattoos with us here on Tattoosday!
