I met Tom in a drug store in my neck of the woods in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn.
He has four tattoos and offered to share this one with us:
This piece celebrates his lineage, honoring the family crest from his grandmother's side.
The Scottish part of him is descended from the Clan Fergusson.The clan motto Dulcius ex asperis means "Sweeter after difficulties".
This was tattooed by Lou at Third Eye Tattoo, in the Park Slope section of Brooklyn. Work from Lou and Third Eye that has appeared on http://tattoosmonday.blogspot.com/ can be viewed here.
Thanks to Tom for sharing his family crest with us here on http://tattoosmonday.blogspot.com/!
