My last tattoo (here) was inked by Pete who uses the moniker "Sweet Pea". He had been tattooing with Michael Kaves in the shop Made in Brooklyn. They have since taken over a space around the corner, on 93rd Street in Bay Ridge, and are now working in a brighter, more expansive space called Brooklyn Made Tattoos.
Popping into the shop to say hi to "Sweet Pea" a few weeks back, before they opened Brooklyn Made, I got a glimpse of him tattooing a koi on a client's leg.
Sweet Pea invited me to snap a shot of his own leg, recently inked by legendary tattoo artist Tony Polito:
This piece of classicly-inspired flash, signed by Polito himself, is another fine work of body art on Sweet Pea's canvas. See the original post featuring his ink here.
Thanks to Sweet Pea for sharing this tattoo with us here on Tattoosday.
