I was pondering how I had managed, since Christmas Eve, to only post ink-spotted tattoos only twice. Some days over the summer I easily eclipse that total on my lunch break.
But this is the heart of winter and, when the temperatures haven't been cooperating, things go slowly.
I was passing through the New Jersey Transit section of Penn Station and was about to head back to the office when I spotted Markjames.
He had tattoos on his hands, neck, and head and answered affirmatively whenI asked if he was a tattoo artist.
After taking a picture of his knuckles to share with the good folks at KnuckleTattoos.com, he offered up this wonderful neck piece:
He wanted a bird of some sort on his throat and collaborated with the artist Matt Rosenthal at Tattoo Nation in Wayne, New Jersey. Work from Tattoo Nation has appeared previously on the site here.
The owl as a symbol of wisdom is a popular tattoo motif, as is evident from the folks over at Owl Tattoos and their site dedicated solely to owl ink.
Markjames works out of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, and will be tattooing at Triple VI Tattoos, beginning in April.
Thanks to Markjames for sharing his amazing tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!
