Christian Kline\u2019s bird tattoo was done by Tina Bafaro<\/a> of Seattle. He is a newcomer to New Bedford and the Providence-MA South Coast area. Christian used to hop trains, planes and automobiles, traveling from Scandinavia to New Zealand, working as a peanut butter smuggler in the underground peanut butter trade. He specialized in leading high-temperature juggernauts<\/a>\u00a0(yeah, you try keeping peanut butter together in that kind of heat) and complex maze navigation<\/a>. The skills he learned during this period of his life made him uniquely qualified to read, listen to music, perform feats of daring and encourage others to do so<\/a>.<\/p>\n

About his tattoo, Christian writes<\/em>:<\/p>\n

Transitions: Birds fly away, they fly back, they flutter around, land and take off, they are confused. Sometimes when you admit to something, changing your mind, changing your direction drawing a line in the sand helps delineate them and now, my lines in sand often seem to be lines of ink on skin; reminders of then and now.
\nPlus, it\u2019s a bird. And birds are cool.<\/p>\n
