Yesterday we enjoyed seeing
the neck tattoo of a Missouri-based artist nicknamed "Dirtbird," as well as
a piece he had inked on his friend Shawn.
In addition to meeting both Shawn and Dirtbird across the street from where I work, I also met Katie, who half-jokingly referred to herself as "Mrs. Dirtbird". She shared this tattoo with us:
Katie explained that this is a wedding tattoo. The piece depicts a heart, comprised of a male and female bird, sewn together. Since she married Dirtbird, this seems like and appropriate expression of their matrimony.
The tattoo was inked by
Becky "Pink Eye" Ashcraft, who works with Dirtbird at
Punkteur Tattoo in Joplin, Missouri.
Thanks to Katie for sharing her cool tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!
