LizBee Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 I have 3 daughters (22 yrs old and 14-yr-old twins) and for Mother's Day today they gave me money towards my floral shoulder piece planned for August. One of the twins is an artist herself and drew this bee for me, since bees are significant in my life, and she knew I was thinking about another bee tattoo (separate from the shoulder piece). She knew I wanted something bold, simple and stylized, and though this is pretty dang tribal, I'm impressed and like the design. She drew it up while killing time after a history test last week. I'll talk to my tattoo artist and decide the best place for it to go. tatB, Suiren, JasonTO and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6280-my-daughters-design-a-mothers-day-present/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beans Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I love the bee, what a great design. Your daughters are very sweet, you must be a lovely mom.

Synesthesia Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Cool, it'll have a lot of sentimental value to you. I came up with the design for one of my dad's tattoos (the artist redrew it a little, but still my concept!) and it's awesome to know he's wearing something I drew for him.

LizBee Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 Cool, it'll have a lot of sentimental value to you. I came up with the design for one of my dad's tattoos (the artist redrew it a little, but still my concept!) and it's awesome to know he's wearing something I drew for him. Yeah, this is really the thing about it. She is very pleased to know that I'd put this on my body permanently. It helps a lot that it is a decent design - WHEW! I warned her that the artist might tweak it a little and she's cool with that. She's starting at an arts high school in the fall (the same one her older sister went to, and the same one that Rayvon Owen from American Idol went to) and is focusing on visual arts. @Synesthesia, what was the design you did for your dad?

Synesthesia Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I don't have any pictures on hand, but it was a shark and anchor design to commemorate his time in the Navy and the Navy Reserves. Someday I'll have to get pictures of his tattoos to remember them before they get old and blurry. :p LizBee 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6280-my-daughters-design-a-mothers-day-present/#findComment-114920 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JakeStewart Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I love it, I'm sure the artist will do a great job sharpening it up for you also :D Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6280-my-daughters-design-a-mothers-day-present/#findComment-115632 Share on other sites More sharing options...
