Sandra's Platform Bloom

Last summer, I met Sandra on a subway platform in south Brooklyn. She shared this colorful flower:


We only spoke briefly, but Sandra explained that she wanted a flower that was somewhat "non-traditional," adding that it reminded her a little of a Rose of Sharon, which makes sense, as a rose of Sharon is often attributed to different flowers, and this one recalls several types.

She credited the work to Jon Jon (@jonjontattoo) from Triple Diamond Tattoo (@triplediamondtattoo) in the Gowanus section of Brooklyn.

A peek at Jon Jon's Instagram shows that this was the first part of a floral half-sleeve that he recently added to:
