A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Triceratops Skull Tattoo

I looooove Cerah‘s triceratops chestpiece tattoo, in progress by Mark Lankin at Funhouse Tattoo in Vancouver, BC. This picture was taken after the second session.

    That is amazing!!! I need to get around to a dinosaur tattoo already. I’m leaning more towards aquatic life like plesiosaurs or a coelacanth, though.

    Brilliant!! I’ve been trying to figure out a cool way to incorporate dinosaurs into my body art, she has shown it can be done! *sigh* Dinosaurs were such a massive part of my childhood. Land Before Time, anyone?
