Wolfhound Shoulder Tattoo with Celtic Design cat Lord of the ForestFilling the entire upper arm and stretching onto the shoulder, this integrated piece combines three elements into a sculptural tattoo pattern. The triple Irish Wolfhound pattern in the center gives the focus, surrounded by a ring, that is linked into an epaulette of knotwork that curves to fit the shoulder. The dogs could be replaced with any circular knot or design, if desired.
