So, this is my newest tattoo. One of my own design. Eventually I'll be getting an entire half sleeve done, but for now, this will do...on my arm, anyway. I'm getting about 6 stars done on my shoulder blades this Monday night...I'm hopelessly addicted. :)
There's something about being able to permanently wear your self expression on your own body. I think it's a beautiful thing.
I sat for 2 and a half hours while my tattoo artist, Randi Ledgewood, painstakingly inked every line and detail I had drawn. It's kinda weird to see someone else draw something I already drew on my own arm....but totally worth it.
We did this at her house instead of a parlor because she's an apprentice (well on her way) who's currently helping out at the parlor and doing tattoos where commissioned on the side for extra cash. But she's pretty awesome! She's got a degree in art, which is admirable....and per her own description, she's obsessively clean! Everybody wins! :)
I will definitely be posting photos of my next tattoos after I get them done, so if anyone wants to see them...check back!
Thanks!
