Dave Buchanan is a very trusting man.

Not only is the Portlander willing to let James McGrory stick him over and over again in the arm with a needle, he’s letting McGrory follow his own artistic vision when he does so.

Sunday, McGrory was working on Buchanan’s lower right arm, creating a tableau of flowing water and lotus flowers, complementing the already completed scene on Buchanan’s left arm of a woman in a kimono with an Asian-art inspired wooded background.
