the second tattoo i got as a tribute to my totem animal the hawk. the the odd part of the story is that i am native american and a shaman. my birth father started his back piece at the same time i did several years ago. the odd part is that we did not know each other then. he is where i get my native american blood from (lakota sioux). his tat is also a full back piece and is a portrait of spirit buffalo calf woman presenting the original pipe to the native people. here is a pic of my tat. yes, i went from my first small piece to a full back piece as my second! i'm wierd!
also, that is one of my original art pieces i am standing in front of.
p.s. this is before it was completely finished so far it is over 12 hours of needle time
