Asclepius, Son of Apollo, god of healing and all-mighty serpent-bearer wields an Asklepian - a staff entwined with a snake... HH’s latest session videos, shows him laying down this symbol of medicine along with a horse skull for our Equine Veterinarian client, Erin.
If you missed these videos on IGTV, you can catch up on both sessions below...
We first learned about Luvin Arms Animal Sanctuary when they contacted us about partnering with them for their 4th Annual Fundraising Gala. It turns out that Meredith had actually tattooed a Luvin Arms resident, Tito the cow, on a client who advocates for animal rights, just last year. Tito was rescued from the Veal industry and was just 10-days old when he was first brought to Luvin Arms. Malnourished and underweight - he spent his first week in intensive care. Thanks to volunteers and donations, Tito has since made a full recovery and now lives his days frolicking in the Luvin Arms pastures with other rescued cows.
And that's just one story - head over to LuvinArms.org to learn more about all of their current residents and the many ways you can get involved!
As raw vegans ourselves, Luvin Arms mission is close to our hearts so we designed a special Vegan Sticker SUPER Pack with 11 large, high-quality, vinyl stickers to be auctioned off to the highest bidder at this year's gala. And to keep the love going, we have stocked a limited-run of the Vegan Sticker SUPER Pack in the Terrarium Tattoo Store so we can donate a portion of all the sales to Luvin Arms animal sanctuary directly. Your purchase helps them continue their work rehabilitating abused and neglected animals.
You can purchase all 11 stickers for $29 or individually for $3 each.
