Johnny's Crows Are His Spiritual Guides

Back in May, I got off the subway in Bay Ridge and was walking behind a guy with ink I couldn't quite make out.

I thought I saw birds on his right arm, but wasn't sure. He was talking to someone so I didn't bother him. I figure, in my neighborhood, I'll run into him again.

About a week later, my wife Melanie is telling me about someone with amazing tattoos with crows on it. She was so impressed, she struck up a conversation with him and passed him my card. I tell her I'm certain I know who she's talking about.

Johnny e-mailed me a day or two later. After some back and forth, we agreed to meet the first Sunday in June. I told him when I would be at the laundromat that morning and we met up and I took pictures.

The problem is, the pictures didn't come out great. It was a bright sunny day and the shots are very light. I e-mailed him back and explained what happened. He said he could send me some better photos. And so it goes.

That was the last time we communicated and I've decided to run the pictures anyway. The sleeve, for that's what it is, isn't complete anyway, so I figure we can get some better shots when the piece is complete.





Johnny has had about four sessions on this piece, and expects about four more.


The birds depicted are crows, which represent his "animal spiritual guide". In his words, "I am not only paying respect to spirit my guide, but also my ancestors, family and friends."


Represented in the various sections of the piece are Mother Earth, Father Sky, and The Great Being.

The Om symbol has long been used as the prime chant in many systems of meditation. Mystics and spiritualists consider Om to be one of the primal sounds of Creation.

Creative tattoo artists have fused the popular flower tattoos with Sanskrit tattoo designs to create some very beautiful, stylish images. The lotus flower, together with the "Om" symbol are starting to become popular.

Traditional tattoo is taken as the symbol of wealth, social status, and class distinction in many countries and tribes. However, tattoo is more than an art which liked by most people. “Human body art is the most beautiful artwork”, said by Augeuste Rodin, the most famous sculptor in France. But traditional tattoo hurts very much as it is done by tattoo needle pierced into the body. So many people feel afraid of the pain. They hunt for a way of body art which is gentle and with no pain. What’s more, fashion is changeable everyday, and they don’t want to be out of day by the traditional tattoo. Airbrush temporary tattoo comes to cater to their needs.

Airbrush temporary tattoo body art has been very popular in western countries. In American, almost every city has 40 to 50 professional airbrush tattoo parlors. All these parlors are nothing more than art workshops where body artists pay all their energy, dreams and sensitivity to the life and then create many attractive and unique designs by taking human’s body as canvas.
