Did I done close the library? Ain’t no one reading and replying after I say anything. 😛 Should I go sulk now?

I read it 🙂

I didn’t think the bones were too bad, but I felt if they were supposed to be from the same skeleton, they were WAY too short, like the femurs of a toddler on an adult. Made no sense. But people aren’t as crazy as I am.

It’s a good tattoo. I like the skull and snake part a lot.

I don’t think your crazy at all.

Actually, the lock and key is so overdone, I think I may go for some the more Dada-esque yet subtle stuff here…. Ink pots melting into hearts with roots, fountain pens over quills, All good suggestions, and I’m thinking this will be my first more surreal piece, maybe even direct my artist over to some German…

Peter, thank you so much. I love some of those images! I will put together some of my favorites and some other stuff to help guide my artist.

Your welcome 🙂

@GrayCatLove 127709 wrote:

What I think I want is something like a heart with roots, perhaps with a lock/key or an old fashioned ink pen through it like a quill pen with a feather, but with roots from the heart itself. I’d be happy with a cutesy little heart or a more detailed anatomical heart, but due to running low on space, it may have to…

For me, it depends on a combo of color, stroke, and hand/talent/lightness.

You really like tempting me. (Talented at lightly hand stroking)

You old dog! 😉

But yeah, making your tattoos all work together regardless of style is about space and how much needle you’re willing to endure.

Arf!

I’m leaving my shin, foot and lower leg alone for a few months. heading North next week for about a four hour session.

You would be surprised when I moved away from my parents home into an absolute dump I got so much strange I use to think that chicks liked that crap hole of a house.

I swear to God, part of me thinks it would be totally bad ass to get the ultimate cliche tattoo: A koi jumping a barbwire rope working a tribal hula hoop. The other part of me can’t stand the idea of being stuck with that idea.

That sounds great I would get it but then again I have a scuba chicken.

Listen to these folks, kiddo.

And welcome. 🙂 Happy to have you.

Thanks alot, I am happy to be here!

It’s a purple ribbon with a brain in the middle? What is it? An homage to Rett’s syndrome?

I’m not being funny. I just can’t tell what it is.

I was curious, too. I think that it is for Brain Cancer awareness. Maybe?? Not sure about the zipper part.

I was thinking it would be nothing but Chapter 9 of Alcott’s Little Women.

You know, in memory of my dead grandma. She was only 4′ 8″ in shoes.

That remind me of “Sissy” in Betty Smith’s “A Tree Grows in Brooklyn” (Harper & Brother 1943). She had 10 “blue baby” deaths before they could afford a doctor. The 11th was…[Read more]

Clearly, Mr. Owl needs a Tootsie Pop.

If that isn’t a good idea, I don’t know what is. Maybe with “How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?” In Russian translation around it..

You know, giving over creative control is so hard, but with a quality artist, nothing but good can come of it.

That is the truth! I was prepared for Ish to go at me with sharpies, because I knew he was big on freehanding.

He got a stencil ready for the main part of the image, put it on, and then said he was going to…[Read more]

During the first session I had with Anthony he attacked my leg with four colors of sharpie markers. I thought “what the fuck am I doing”. It’s soon one year since my first tattoo.

My back is largely an unspoiled canvas, and while I want a tattoo there, what I want there changes from minute to minute on some days. I’m impressed how many of you people have really good (albeit, not fully realized) tattoo ideas.

I’ve been thinking about your virgin back. I see a pond, or small lake, surrounded by…[Read more]
