My Native American Tattoos....
O.K. I know there has been a few threads that showcase various Board members' Native American Tattoos.. i would have posted these there if i could have found them...
Anywho I thought folks here abouts would find my Ink work of Interest...

The KokoPelli is on my Left forearm and is my most recent Ink work.. 10 years ago..( i know, I know..gotta get more..)

The other two are Coso Anthromorphs.. basically your Rain Shaman figures from the Coso Mountains here in California. The Smaller gentleman with the Quail Feathers on his head is my oldest tattoo, having got him 22 years ago.. I finally met him in person in 2009; he is 3 ft. tall and surrounded by smaller friends..he is on my Left Shoulder.
The Big Rain Shaman is on my Right Calf and is my biggest tattoo being about 6 inches tall.. I got him 20 years ago and he has held up very well..

I just figured fellow Pointy Rock hunters, who have Native American themed Tattoos would enjoy seeing my Ink...

I am going to get more and hopefully very soon... My GF really likes my Tattoos and encourages me to get more.. any wonder why I Love her soo much...

I've wanted off and on to get a Kokapelli for many years. Now you got me thinking about it again.

I always figured if I got another tatoo, it would be the one you have in the middle. It is one of a handful of the most famous petroglyphs on the planet. Here is a poor scan of a pic I took back in the 80s. It is dificult to photograph because of the ledge where it is situated.
The deer is from a lesser travelled canyon that is not accessible to the public. I have a very high res pic of this one. It is my favorite pet photo ever.
