Behemoth the Cat – Tampa Bay Henna Tattoo, Art Print, or Note Cards | Inspired by The Master and Margarita
Part black cat, part chaos demon, all literary legend.
This original design celebrates Behemoth, the unforgettable black cat from Mikhail Bulgakov’s The Master and Margarita. Equal parts trickster and philosopher, Behemoth is Satan’s sarcastic sidekick—armed with wit, fire, and the occasional pistol.
Drawn in a bold, graphic henna-inspired style, this artwork features the haloed cat perched on a book, radiating occult elegance. It’s paired with a companion tattoo of stylized oak and laurel leaves—symbols of transformation and resilience that echo the novel’s surreal morality.
You can wear this design as a temporary henna tattoo, order it as an art print, or send it to a fellow book lover on a note card—choose the option that suits your literary mood.
🌿 Option 1: In-Person Henna Tattoo Appointment – Tampa Bay Area
I travel throughout Tampa Bay (Tampa, St. Pete, Clearwater, and nearby areas) offering custom henna tattoos using jagua gel and henna paste—plant-based dyes that stain the skin a rich blue-black and a deep burnt orange that lasts 1–2 weeks.
The mobile appt includes both tattoos:
-
Behemoth the Cat (approx. 4–5")
-
Oak & Laurel Band (wraps around arm or leg)
✍️ How It Works:
Message me before purchasing to coordinate date, time, and location. I bring everything needed for a clean, relaxing tattoo experience at your home or event.
🧴 Aftercare Tips:
-
Let the gel dry completely (about 1 hour)
-
Avoid smudging—especially on moving areas like legs or arms
-
Leave the gel on skin for 3–6 hours before gently peeling off
-
Avoid water for the next 24 hours to ensure a deep stain
🖼️ Option 2: Art Print – With or Without Border
Prefer to frame it instead? Choose a museum-quality art print:
-
With Border: Includes Indian henna-style black line art around the image
-
Without Border: Clean, minimalist version
-
Both are double-matted (black under white) to fit an 11x14 frame with an 8x10 opening
✉️ Option 3: Set of 4 Note Cards
Send a little literary mischief through the mail.
-
Includes 4 folded note cards featuring the design on front
-
Blank inside for personal messages
-
Comes with 4 invitation-sized envelopes
Whether you want to wear it, hang it, or mail it, this design honors one of literature’s most iconic familiars. A perfect gift for readers, cat lovers, and fans of beautiful, subversive ink
