I’ve been in the market for a new tattoo lately. I’m trying to find something medium sized, maybe something that covers most of my forearm, or I might even cross the line into the worst of all male tattoos — the leg tattoo. I was thinking of getting a wolf with eagle wings riding on a raptor that is tearing its way out of an American flag, but that’s really more of a back tattoo. My constant vigilance for tattoo ideas, makes me very receptive to any and all tattoo art, so it’s no surprise then that I got that special tingle when I came across Stasia Burrington’s work. Ink drawn, tattoo covered women? Yes, please. And of course her talents go far beyond that, but that’s the part that won me over. If I hadn’t already fucked up by getting tattoos on a variety of my body parts, I would definitely go for something more all encompassing like in Burrington’s work. You live with your decisions, I guess. Probably the reason I’ve learned patience in deciding on tattoos. Wolf Eagle Raptor is still a winner though, that one is a definite.
