Jess Shares Her Colorful Rooster

I met Jess last month and, still using a loaner camera, managed to get a shot of one of her three tattoos, located on her right forearm:


Aside from the fact that the picture is not ideally crisp, one can still see how beautiful and colorful this tattoo is.
The inspiration came from a book of Chinese propaganda posters.

Jess noted that she asked the artist, John Reardon at Saved Tattoo, to give the rooster a "gentler eye" which she hoped would "embrace [its] masculinity while poking fun at it". Reardon's work has appeared previously on Tattoosday here and here.

Thanks to Jess for sharing this lovely rooster with us here on Tattoosday!

Zoe's Tattoo Makes the Cut

I spotted this superbly-done tattoo on Zoe's upper left arm last month in the New Jersey Transit waiting area in Penn Station:


Straight up and simply, these scissors represent Zoe's tat-tool of the trade - she has worked as a hairstylist for two years.

She credits Mike Lucena at Fly Rite Studio in Brooklyn for the tattoo.

Thanks again to Zoe for sharing her scissors with us here on Tattoosday!

Jared Leto Tattoos

Jared Leto is an American actor and musician, known for his role in the movie Alexander and Requiem for a Dream, plus he is also the singer-songwriter and guitarist of rock band 30 Seconds to Mars.


Jared Leto has been spotted with a few tattoo designs, including a large circle and X located on his left forearm, this design is the Echelon which is part of the bands iconography.


The singer/actor also has a couple other tattoos, one being on his inner right wrist and another on his neck, which i believe is the symbol of the bands glyphs.
