The widdershins triple spiraling triskle tumbles along a sine wave to form a graceful La Tene arm band on a Pagan who would have her Samhain embellishment.

'DarkLord Armor' Celtic Knot Forearm Sleeve Tattoo
Today was the second session on this forearm piece, a rather unique integrated pattern of Celtic knot work that is what would be called in the illuminated manuscripts a "carpet page." The client is a musician, and this will make quite the statement onstage. Covering a significant section of the body with one continuous flowing pattern is a dynamic choice, and quite the commitment. I appreciate the challenge.

'DarkLord Armor' Celtic Knot Forearm Sleeve Tattoo by Pat Fish
A Celtic knot forearm pattern that mixes a looping pattern with a grid, done deliberately large and bold for a musician client who performs dark music.......... this tattoo fulfills the goal of being impressive at a distance, and fascinating up close.
Celtic Wolf and Wolfhound Tattoo Torc
The traditional Celtic warriors' necklace is a torc, a thick band (preferably made of gold) and open in the front. In this version one side is the dire wolf, the other the Irish Wolfhound, the two sides of the warrior's personality. This Navy seal came in on his leave from duty in Afghanistan and got the ethnic body armor that will see him through what he hopes will be the last tour of duty our service-people have to do there. May he wear it well and come home safe to his family.

Celtic 'Horse Feathers' Tattoo
Horse feathers! An equestrienne came in today wanting Celtic horses, so we made an anklet of two with noses touching and front legs crossed, with their body knots woven into an anklet, and the graceful addition of a feather draped across the top of the foot, to add movement as she walks out.
