Joker portrait on a calf

Realism · Calf · Colour · Photo

A detailed portrait of the fictional Joker character, showing smeared white and red face makeup, a wide red grin, tousled greenish-brown hair, a purple jacket, and a patterned shirt with a dark tie. The tattoo uses soft blended shading for skin and hair, with sharp contrast around the eyes and mouth. Bold reds and purples dominate the colour palette, and the portrait fills the frame with the leg's natural curve visible at the edges.

A story inspired by this tattoo · fiction

Nobody had booked a clown, so when the man in the purple jacket came up the gravel path with a cake box under one arm, Imelda Frost assumed he was the baker's nephew and waved him through. The cake was three tiers of lemon sponge with sugar roses on every corner, and it was not the cake she had ordered. Across the top, in red piping applied with a steady and frankly admirable hand, someone had written SHE NEVER LEFT THE VICARAGE. Imelda had run weddings in Ashcombe for nineteen years, and she knew a threat when she read one, even in buttercream.

He set the box on the trestle table beside the sherry, smoothed his lapels and asked for Mr Dunstable by name. When she told him the father of the bride was currently being sick behind the marquee, he looked genuinely sorry. "Then I'll speak to the vicar instead," he said, and pressed a playing card into her palm. It was the jack of hearts. On the back, in neat capitals, someone had written ASK HIM ABOUT THE POND.

The Reverend Terence Pell was at the buffet, dabbing gravy off his cassock, and when Imelda held up the card his face turned the exact shade of the icing. His wife Marjorie took the card from her, read it, and let out a laugh like a dropped tray. "Oh, Terence. You always did pick the cheap ones." Nobody ever learned what the pond had cost, or who had paid for it.

The man in the purple jacket stood up in the speech slot the best man had abandoned, told a story about a bride who had once hidden in a hedge rather than marry the wrong man, and had the whole marquee in tears by the second line. When Imelda went to find him afterwards, the cake box was empty except for a slip of paper: Lemon's on the house. Keep the roses. She ate one, standing alone by the bins, and it was unsettlingly delicious.
