Shannon Shares Work by Stacey Martin and Noon

Sometimes a quick run to the grocery store brings an unexpected bonus.<br /><br />Last September, for example, I ran into Shannon, whose tattoos prompted me to stop and inquire.<br /><br />As it turned out, Shannon is one of the owners of <a href="https://www.facebook.com/TripleDiamondTattoo">Triple Diamond Tattoo</a>, which opened last summer on Third Avenue in Brooklyn.<br /><br />She shared two tattoos, including this back piece:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4RidjjiepOvBb2hT-fdWIaPLlAXXSQC-IlfCSFQIwsrFezXXPa4VAmYVOZKe1TiDCAe_bCMqnOkcDHhRzK822Kt0ez59kbvwz5HGxaSn3vc0Lx9w207U4igs2veW8s2OPTtbwIy-7vkk/s774/photo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="504" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4RidjjiepOvBb2hT-fdWIaPLlAXXSQC-IlfCSFQIwsrFezXXPa4VAmYVOZKe1TiDCAe_bCMqnOkcDHhRzK822Kt0ez59kbvwz5HGxaSn3vc0Lx9w207U4igs2veW8s2OPTtbwIy-7vkk/s640/photo.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />This tattoo features yellow roses and a fan and was inked by <a href="http://staceymartin.com/site/">Stacey Martin</a> at <a href="http://dovetailtattoo.com/site/">Dovetail Tattoo</a> in Austin, Texas. We have featured Stacey's work previously on Tattoosday, namely <a href="http://tattoosday.blogspot.com/2012/07/another-friday-13th-amazing-vargas.html">this piece</a> from last summer.<br /><br />Shannon also shared this unusual tattoo on her leg:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjS2gCTqFe06K1kbYFRUCX7ZSJgAEY4hvGlQ66DaUK6Qd3LPqDL_DOgw5-bPl3sOUCRMICCLtNE-qqmsHmI6nHxE01nTJK-JnOHF1M3g_tBQ4XdTE56TWq3j_C-uZEE62t-j4Wo8An0o2I/s615/photo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjS2gCTqFe06K1kbYFRUCX7ZSJgAEY4hvGlQ66DaUK6Qd3LPqDL_DOgw5-bPl3sOUCRMICCLtNE-qqmsHmI6nHxE01nTJK-JnOHF1M3g_tBQ4XdTE56TWq3j_C-uZEE62t-j4Wo8An0o2I/s640/photo.jpg" width="288" /></a></div><br />The tattoo on her leg was done by <a href="http://www.boucherie-traditionnelle.com/boucherie_traditionnelle/index.html">Noon</a>, a modern abstract artist based in Troyes, France, who travels to the U.S. once a year.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-4M_ra6CZfeKaUgfiFmOWh0BRmLxHSCGqmMRzXruXRNpVFFY6MUn0ibJDee6yMcPnKcdS6_XILvcz5NhV2zv_gXsXK_KE_j7c4noz8j5h9HAu52ki1bpGnN1WExEeZW94YQob9KQ9csM/s615/photo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-4M_ra6CZfeKaUgfiFmOWh0BRmLxHSCGqmMRzXruXRNpVFFY6MUn0ibJDee6yMcPnKcdS6_XILvcz5NhV2zv_gXsXK_KE_j7c4noz8j5h9HAu52ki1bpGnN1WExEeZW94YQob9KQ9csM/s640/photo.jpg" width="512" /></a></div><br />I always ask about back story, of course, but also recognize their is a significant segment of the tattooed population who get tattooed for the sake of the art. Regrading these pieces, Shannon identified with the latter, stating simple, "I like what I like."<br /><br />Thanks to Shannon from stopping and sharing with me at Foodtown, so we could present these cool tattoos on Tattoosday!<br /><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><b id="internal-source-marker_0.19129610969685018" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Arial; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This entry is ©2013 Tattoosday.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you are seeing this on another website other than Tattoosday, without attribution, please note that it has been copied without the author's permission and is in violation of copyright laws.
