^ The half sleeve on my arm finished (sea life) and a sugar skull on my leg. Cool. I saw an artist last week in Cali that did my buddys sleeve. Coming up with some ideas now.

I was just looking at the matt lukesh pics, if he can get that much detail in a human face he could probably do a photo perfect Rufus!

My ‘end of pregnancy' gift to myself is going to be getting inked. lol I already have enough saved up for the 3 tattoos I am going to get ASAP. On my left wrist I am getting the eternity symbol with KS in it (Kriss initials). (Obviously this is just me sketching it down quick but ya get the idea) On my right wrist I am getting the chinese symbol for mother. And on my right forearm I am getting two fish swimming in a circle like this- But drawn like this Koi fish- One will be purple, and one blue (Signifying Kris and I) and 2 flowers in the middle to symbolize Avery and Faith -The flowers with be the girls’ birth month colors. As we have more kids down the road, the girls will be flowers and boys dragonflies. I also (At some point down the road) want to get a dove, a tree with lots of 'hidden' things and meanings in it, and a Winnie the Pooh scene and quote. I have no idea where I want any of these. This is a sketch of the tree I want. (Again, I am no artist) lol One side (The dead looking side) symbolizes the past and hard times Ive made it thru. Each blowing leaf has its own meaning behind it. The blossoms symbolize new beginnings and fresh starts. There will be two birds in the sky- symbolizing my cousin (Who was like a brother) and my grandfather (Whom I was very close with) watching over me. The sun- because Ive always looked up and let it dry my tears. And 2 Tulips at the base of the tree to symbolize my daughters. My daughters and Kriss names will be hidden in the branches and there will be a nest on the ‘live’ side symbolizing I am now at peace and feel ‘at home’. Im still thinking of more to put into this…. Work in progress but you get the idea. This is the tree I want: And these will be how the two birds are drawn for the actual thing: Let me know what you guys think!!!

Turns out we have a tattoo artist on the staff at BCAS. I knew she had a lot of tats, but I didn't realize that she actually did them as well till today, when she casually mentioned that an applicant's friend was one of her clients. I of course immediately asked about a tear drop tattoo, and she all but SHRIEKED that she doesn't do "gangsta stuff". I can't catch a break in this world ...

Amy Jo, beautiful beautiful ideas...I've always admired people creating their own body art. Tattoos should be completely your own unique statement...any clown can pick something from a flash book...that's like going to McDonalds for something they're probably going to wear for life. The tree details, the fish concept...Wonderful!
John, if the teardrop is what I'm imagining...wasn't it supposed to symbolize how many hits someone did??? Not so tasteful...maybe rethink that a bit? Tats on face, hands, or neck are not such a super idea and back of thigh or underarm OWWWWWWWW, just sayin'

Maybe a pentagram on my forehead and an inverted cross under my left eye? I just can't decide on the colors, though I'm leaning towards purple and green for an "acid trip" feel ... ;D
