I ran into Alfredo last month in Penn Station and he shared this tattoo:
He credited this to an artist named Sy at Sunset Park Tattoo.
Alfredo, who has "over 23" tattoos, told me that this traditional sugar skull is embellished with a hairstyle modeled after the way his mother wore her hair on her wedding day. The rose at the edge of the tattoo is in tribute to his grandmother.
