Celtic Sparrow Tattoo

Today a honeymooning newlywed asked for a sparrow in flight to grace her shoulder blade. I used a series of twisted knots to give a feminine wing, and at her request extended the tail to something more like a bird of paradise. It is unusual to combine elements of realism with knots, and a challenge I enjoy.
