panther tree by danielle distefano

Let me start off by saying I loved this panther that I had to cover up, I could not understand why he wanted to get rid of it, but it didn’t mean anything to him anymore and he wanted it gone. We had a hard time figuring out how to cover it up but not really make it bigger. If I didn’t put the boarder around the tree it would have had to be bigger to make sense. This was a great compromise and solution to what my client wanted to get. At the last minute we threw in some initials into the trunk to really make this a more meaningful tattoo for him. I love that it’s still kind of in the panther position, maybe just cause I know it’s under there. I have been doing a lot of coverups lately, and it’s always a challenge but it works out to be really worth it. Danielle
