Sol James Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Hi guys! Hope you're well! id like a tattoo as an homage to my favourite song of all time, 'And it Stoned Me' by Van Morrison. What images do you think would work well, as a palm sized trad tattoo, on my inside forearm? I've a few ideas but am interested in more from you good people! Thanks for your help!

SStu Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Imagery that is "traditional" might be a tough one. Maybe neo-traditional? Pick a place or person that you associate with this song and start from there.

el twe Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Rain cloud, or fishing rod, or Jelly Roll Morton with a banner that reads "Oh, the Water"? But yeah, bounce this idea off your artist - something good will come from this.

I didn't know whether my artist (Andrea Giulimondi) might need a more definite idea?! Maybe he'd be happy to figure something out from the lyrics... maybe a scene, with a boat on the water, and the banner would work?
