rdinak Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Going in Saturday to make an appointment for the rest of this vision. I envisioned this as a two piece project for deeply personal reasons. I saw this photo on line and knew it was I wanted subject to my artist interpretation.... The first half on my back. Second half coming out of my chest above my heart. Yes my divorce comes to mind. This project brings closure on many levels. Life is good. Ink is good! Gingerninja, rob323, bongsau and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synesthesia Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Some updates on the things I'm working on this year... I had a minor financial setback and didn't feel comfortable getting my "get what you get" piece from a local shop yet, so maybe I'll swing by this week on one of my days off. I reached out to Paul Dobleman for a piece, unfortunately he's not taking appointments as far in advance as I wanted to make it so that needs to wait a little longer. I'm thinking I'd like either a vase with flowers or a Rose of No Man's Land design. I'd be fine with just about anything he wanted to do, though. It's for my other outer forearm and it needs to cover a burn scar, so I'm anxious to hear his thoughts on the spot. I'm also still hoping to get one of my knees done this year, I'm thinking either a peony or chrysanthemum and there's two or three artists I'm still considering for it. I have some work around my knees already so I don't know how either of those designs would fit really.

Some inter-provincial Canadian tattoo action on my 2nd layer, t-minus one week for me. SStu, Oiocha and Gingerninja 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AverageJer Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 So my wife and I are going to New York City next weekend for a long child free weekend and this morning I was a little bored and got to thinking and next thing you know I called Smith Street and made us each an appointment. We plan to just walk in and pick something off the wall. I gotta tell you- we are both looking forward to it. zetroc, pidjones, oboogie and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
