Sasha's Cranes

    I spotted this tattoo on the upper right arm of a Sasha in the Bay Ridge Century 21 store:


    I love the dark colors in the piece and wanted to hear more about it.

    Sasha explained that it is a cover-up of a moon tattoo, and that the design is Japanese in origin. The birds in the design are cranes, which have immense cultural and mythological significance. Among other valuable characteristics, cranes symbolize honor and loyalty.

    This is one of "at least eight" tattoos that Sasha has. The tattoo was inked by Maya at Third Eye Tattoo in Park Slope, Brooklyn. We've seen a lot of work by Lou at Third Eye here, but this is the first piece, I believe, that we've featured from Maya.

    Thanks to Sasha for sharing her cranes with us here on Tattoosday!
