I hope you get a chance to see Tomas as he is leaving the states and heading back home.

Of course a trip to see him and get tattooed on his native land would be neat too.

I thought I'd revisit my list four years later. I've been tattooed several times since then and other than Steve Byrne, I haven't been tattooed by anyone else on the list. The last tattoo I received was by Cesar Mesquita at Black Garden Tattoo. I had looked in to Vargas and Erl, but scheduling and distance made it impossible. That being said, I love my new tattoo and I was really pleased with my experience at Black Garden. Cesar is a really nice guy and I'm glad it turned out the way it did. Bottom line, I've decided not to be rigid. If I insisted on getting Freddy Corbin to tattoo my praying hands, I'd have missed out on an awesome tattoo and experience from Katja Ramirez. Just some food for thought.
