My next tattoo: crows versus coyote

[kestrell]

I've been pretty much decided on getting a murder of crows going up my left forearm, but recently I began thinking of getting a coyote instead, since I really like the idea of having one of my tricksters on my skin.

I was trying to find out if any Boston area tattoo artists had done any coyote tats, but instead came across this thread of Reddit folks discussing a Boston-area sighting of a coyote a year or so ago

I love the comment "And his hair was perfect."

I had my ivy vine done at Good Faith Tattoos before Covid, but I'm not sure if anyone there does animals really well. If anyone can recommend someone locally, feel free to post here.

Wow! It's like that old Heart song, "The Dog and the Butterfly," but more badass.

That does sound like the perfect resolution, but it is also a lot of tat time, two or three sessions, so I would definitely have to find an artist who would be into helping to design this. I've only done one-session (approx. two-hour long) tattoos before. My experience is that the first 45 minutes it's a literal buzz, as you're running on the endorphins, the next 45 minutes is okay, and the final half hour your waiting for it to be over.
