And guess what else? The turtle is actually a coverup. The lines alone are a good start, so the tattoo below should be completely hidden once the color is put in! More pics will be on the way as these pieces progress.

Still confused? We recommend taking a quick trip to Google and typing in Lord Egan. But this picture is also a good summary. He came into our shop recently and PJ was more than happy to fulfill his tattoo wishes. But really, who could say no?

On the opposite end of the darkness spectrum, Molly did this adorable owl yesterday. We don’t think Lord Egan would trade in his raven for it anytime soon, but it’s still pretty great in a non-Satanic way.

Witch pin-up on right shoulder by Matt Maguire.

Here is a vintage 1950′s style flying witch color tattoo done on the upper left arm.

I’m a big fan of pinup art and Gil Elvgrin is the master. So this is a witch tattoo based

off a painting called “Riding high” Gil did in 1958. If you’re looking for a realistic tattoo,

you can contact Matt here at Witch City Ink (978.744.9393, witchcityink@gmail.com). To check out more

Harp Tattoo by Molly McKinnon

The Irish have always been proud to show their heritage in the form of skin art. The most popular image tends to be a shamrock, or a clover. My client Steve choose to support his roots with another time-honored symbol of the Irish; the harp. Unless you are familiar with the Guinness draft logo, or the Irish in general it may come as a surprise that the image of the harp is the symbol of the Emerald Island. He brought in a photo of a real harp he printed off the internet, but requested I draw it up in a more traditional style.
