Jenn's Ink Celebrates a Seventies Vibe

On a day that found me unsuccessful with inkspotting the 5th Avenue Festival in Bay Ridge, Fate walked me past Jenn, sitting outside a laundromat a block away from my home.

She happily shared the work on her upper left arm:



These stunning colors encircled her biceps.


She said this piece, inked by Jared Stomber at Kustom Kulture Ink in Baldwin, New York, is an "ode to 1970's fashion". This is one area of interest to her that moves her artistically and she wanted to express it through body art.

Fictional character Rhoda Morgenstern (from The Mary Tyler Moore Show and spin off Rhoda) was among the cultural icons that inspired the design.




The inner part of Jenn's arm also features artwork that recalls the animated birds from the opening sequence of The Partridge Family.


Although her birds are much more elaborate.


Thanks to Jenn for sharing this amazing tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!
