Darya's Bi-Coastal Peacock and Cherry Blossoms

I met Darya coming out of the subway in Bay Ridge and asked if I could take a picture of her tattoo. She kindly allowed me to do so and share it here with everyone on Tattoosday:





Darya explained that she always wanted a peacock tattoo, and she has fourteen tattoos in all (not all peacocks). Joe Maggs at Brooklyn Ink tattooed the peacock.





The cherry blossoms, symbols of regeneration, were added by Illya at Studio City Tattoos in California.



Thanks to Darya for sharing her tattoos from both coasts here on Tattoosday!

Sharon's Bird on a Saturday

At the end of September, I spotted this bird on the left side of Sharon's upper back:





Sharon drew this herself and had it tattooed at Fat Cat Tattoo in Sacramento, California.


I'd love to tell you more about this tattoo, but Sharon never e-mailed me to give me more details. Nonetheless, it's some nice work.

Jessica's Feather for her Mother

I met Jessica on the express platform at 34th Street earlier this month.



She shared this gorgeous peacock feather tattooed on the upper right section of her back:





The piece is an homage to her mother, who loves everything peacock, and has countless items, like bracelets and other jewelery, that emulate the vivid colors of these beautiful birds.



She credits this tattoo to an artist known only as Allison.
