Sharing: Tattoos

So you may have notices from some of my pics that I have tattoos, They really are a personal preference, I love them but that is just me.

If I had more money, I would have more.

I thought I would share anyhow, Sorry the pics are so blurry. hard to get good ones when I have hangover shakes.


This was my first ever tattoo so it's pretty faded, I was about 17 so ten years old.
I love reptile and amphibians.
This one is on my shoulder.
My mom drew this.


Not sure why I wanted a Dragonfly I just know that I did.
This one is on my right wrist.
Mom also drew this one.


Again I love frogs so this is the one that is on my neck.
This was a necklace pendant that I had.


This is a Fuschia flower, It was my grandmothers favourite flower.
This is on my hip.
Mom drew this one too.


Squee lives on my ankle, I love Jhonen Vasquez 
so it seemed only right to have one of his characters on me somewhere.


This pic is a little of centre I assure you its even.
The lizard in the centre was a design I found and my second tattoo.
Then about 2 years later I drew this design to go around it.
This is on my Lower back.


This as you can see is my foot, this is a backwards poem starting at the tail and ending in the dragons head.
The poem is the first four lines of William Blakes - Auguries of Innocence.


This one is my most recent one and I got him in NY a few years back on holidays.
He lives on my foot,
Trust me walking all over New York City after getting a tattoo done and then flying hone to Ireland 2 days later is not a good plan, My foot closely resembled a football.
Major Swellage.

So there they are.
:D

  1. Wow! Some lovely ink there lady! Love that your mom drew some of the pics. My mom had a heart attack when I showed her my first (and only so far) tattoo. I don't think she would contribute to my love of the artwork...

  4. Love your artwork. I have begged Bub to draw one of mine, but so far its a no go, lol. Hubs actually did one of mine though, so that was nice. My calf, shin, and foot are done (but not finished) I had it done on a Mon. then worked all week, had really bad results from that.

    I get lots of flack from people about mine, but they are all in very visible places. I only have a couple you can't see, lol. That doesn't stop me from wanting lots more.
