So I bit the bullet and “broke up” with my artist. Thanks to all the encouraging words and help! I have an appointment on the 12th to see a new guy, who specializes in traditional tattoos, and I’ve learned my lesson and will not allow needle to touch skin without proof of beauty. Thanks again!

Ok finally figured out how to shrink pics on my mac, so here’s the pics of my tat now. Looks so much better than before! They are in the album. Of course still a ways from being finished, but it’s so much better!!
