Today a Texan firefighter in the area to combat the numerous wild fires currently burning was able to carve out time in his schedule to acquire this new skin art. He had a previous tattoo of the Maltese cross, so I drew up a dragon that filled the upper arm and finishes with a tail that swoops to the inside. Bespoke coverage that brings his tattoo up to a half sleeve.
Celtic Dragon & Florian Maltese Cross Tattoo (dragon by Pat Fish)
"Crosses of this design have been used since around the First Crusade in 1096. The design is said to symbolize the eight points of courage: loyalty, piety, bravery, frankness, glory and honor, no fear of death, compassion toward the sick and poor, and respect for the church." -st-florian-medal.com
