Here you go. Now keep in mind that the hand is a tough place for a tattoo. I thought this fucker would never heel up.

This was taken the day the tattoo was done.

This was taken today, three and 1/2 months later.

Also note that my hand was quite swollen when the first picture was taken.

What I struggle with is trying to figure out how the hell to describe what I want.

When you connect with the right artist, they’ll know what you’re talking about.

What I really want to do is just give the artist an idea of what I want, and just kind of let him do what he wants with it. I think the best tattoos come out of giving them artistic freedom.

I’m also a big fan of freehand work.

I like the Willow tree idea.

Looks sweet!

I don’t know much about color in tattoos.

All of my tattoos are colorful. The hue of your skin indicates that color tattoos would work very well for you.

THAT doesn’t leave much time for sitting around being an asshole!

Eat well before your appointment. Drink lots of liquids too.

Give it three months.

The artist I work with started using Fusion brand ink. Their colors are about as bright as you can find.

Remember then, keep your tattoos moisturized and keep them out of the sun.

I have the lobster. working on the stingray, and no doubt some shrimp and scallops will be showing up in the future.

When I worked in the hospital all the talk was about an elderly lady that came to the E.R. one night. When she was disrobed the nurse was startled at the peculiar look of her chest. It was quickly discovered that she had her breasts tucked into the top of her girdle.
