So yesterday I met someone with two lovely tattoos based on the art of Edward Gorey, but you're going to have to wait to see them.
Rather, meeting those tattoos reminded me I had another Gorey tattoo to share, one that I met a month ago today in Penn Station.
Katie has seven tattoos and is a fan of Mr. Gorey. It was this piece on her right bicep that caught my attention:
From the Gorey book of the same name, this is the "Insect God". This cool tattoo was inked by Chrys Goldberg at Bushido Tattoo Studio, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Thanks again to Katie for sharing her insect deity with us here on http://tattoosmonday.blogspot.com/!
