I met Jess last month and, still using a loaner camera, managed to get a shot of one of her three tattoos, located on her right forearm:
Aside from the fact that the picture is not ideally crisp, one can still see how beautiful and colorful this tattoo is.
The inspiration came from a book of Chinese propaganda posters.
Jess noted that she asked the artist, John Reardon at Saved Tattoo, to give the rooster a "gentler eye" which she hoped would "embrace [its] masculinity while poking fun at it". Reardon's work has appeared previously on Tattoosday here and here.
Thanks to Jess for sharing this lovely rooster with us here on Tattoosday!
