replied to the topic So what else do you like?? in the forum General Discussion 12 years, 6 months ago
I have two kids (17 months and 4 weeks) who keep me incredibly busy every day.
I was a teacher, pre-kids, and I have taught preschool for 5 years and I loved every second of it.
My husband is in the military, and that’s a bit time consuming in our lives.
I love reading.
I’m a published poet and I am starting to write short stories.
I have a…[Read more]

You have some serious talent.
You said you’re in Buffalo, yeah? I have family real close to there. Next time I come up I may be hitting you up for an appointment or two. I’m really feeling the old school look on some of the pieces, and I am LOVING the vibrant colors in your roses. Definitely making me want one.Good work.

replied to the topic Question about a tattoo design in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 13 years, 6 months ago
Yeah, the size that you were thinking is almost impossible. I have tattoos on both of my wrists, while they are not elaborate by any definition, they are definitely bigger than what you were wanting.
If you want a lotus, and want it visible, I’d consider putting it somewhere else. Ankle? Shoulder? Hip? Places where it can still be covered if…[Read more]

replied to the topic my custom designed half sleeve in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 13 years, 6 months ago
It looks pretty good now that it’s done. Definitely was a bit skeptical, like a few others, at the beginning but I like the non-traditional look of it.
And I’m falling in love with bright colors in tattoos so I’m feeling the color choices. -

I was half-hoping to get started today when I went, but I knew that if my artist said he could do it so quick that it might not turn out how I like. So I was sorta pleased when he told me that he couldn’t. Appointment is set though and I have a week to wait.Well I hope the week wait goes quickly for ya! Glad you liked…[Read more]

Like others said, definitely check into the artist a bit. You need someone who can handle that kind of design.
But I dig the idea. I could see it flowing real good if put in the right spot on your ribs.

replied to the topic The process in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 13 years, 6 months ago
I like it. None of mine have hurt while getting them so it’s been an amazing experience talking to the artists and swaping stories and jokes.

replied to the topic How many tattoos do you have? in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 13 years, 6 months ago
I have 7 currently. I am no where near covered, but I would love to be.
My parents are incredibly conservative and probably had nightmares when I got my first one. The town I’m in is incredibly open to tattoos. I live nearby to a large military community so it is nothing new to the people here.
I got my first one at 18. I’m 23 now.All of…[Read more]
