Kate's Snakes


Although it was Jenny (here) who was visibly inked, Kate also had a tattoo, hidden from view.

So when I was done talking to Jenny, I asked Kate if she wanted to share, as well.

Kate unveiled this great tattoo on the lower portion of her back:


(A Tattoosday production note: I never solicit back tattoos but will happily feature them, when offered).

This piece consists of a couple of snakes consuming one another, a symbol of the circular cycle of life, death, and rebirth.

Or, in Kate's words, "what destroys us, sustains us".

This tattoo was inked at Twilight Tattoo in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Thanks to Kate for baring her back and sharing her snakes with us here on Tattoosday!

Update: "Anonymous" commented that this looked like the Auryn from The Neverending Story:



It certainly does! Thanks Anonymous!
