Sean's Tattoo of Odin is a Tribute to His Norwegian Heritage
I met Sean earlier this week in Penn Station and he was kind enough to share this wonderfully-done tattoo of the Norse god Odin:
In the epic poems at the center of Norse mythology, known as the Poetic Edda, one key section from a collection known as the Hávamál features Odin hanging from the world tree, revealing the origins of the runes, which are seen in detail below at the bottom of the tattoo.
Sean's tattoo is a tribute to his Norwegian heritage.
This piece was tattooed in three sittings by Bobby Chichester at Empire State Studio, in Oceanside, New York. Work from that shop has appeared previously on the site here.
Thanks to Sean for sharing this incredible tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!
