My favorite spiral symbol, the Aberlemno circle from Scotland, stretched to fit a leg calf. Requires precision that makes me hold my breath, mustn't tell the client any jokes, slow and steady. On my first ever client from the British Virgin Islands, this tattoo will see lots of surf and sun and is bold enough to weather well.

Celtic Tree of Life Black Graphic Tattoo Design
A black graphic Celtic Tree of life symbolizing the emergence of vivid new growth, a time of renewal and promise.
When this gal was 15 she went to a party where she got high, made a bad choice, and had a random vagrant tattoo a butterfly on her upper arm. The next day she regretted it, and several years later had a doctor cut out the ink, leaving a butterfly shaped scar (inset) that she dressed to conceal for the next 35 years. Now, a tree of life is a symbol of her turning a regret into a thing of beauty.
Bell Sleeve Celtic Knot Tattoo Design
A complex full-coverage half sleeve in a bell shape that follows the contours of the shoulder and ends at the elbow. A bold statement of integrated Celtic knot work that covers all visible sections of the upper arm and has the appearance of chain mail armor.
