I got this on 4-19-12 at 7 Sevens in Grants Pass, OR. It’s a one man shop owned by Jeremy Elledge. He rocks! This symbol is called a hamsa. In the Middle East and Jewish homes, it is common to see it hanging on walls or as a pendant on a necklace. It’s used for protection from evil and is said to bring the bearer of the symbol good luck and strength. The bits on either side of it are just for decoration. This is my fourth tattoo so far. Apologies for the photo, it’s still fresh and is peeling a bit!

This is the outside of my half sleeve. I love the use of the bees in the eyes of the sugar skull. The ribbon in its entirety reads “we are the everliving ghost of what once was”. Hayden Abernathy is responsible for this beautiful piece, she is an awesome artist and tattoos at Straight A Tattoo is Asheboro, NC.

My Frank N. Furter tattoo moments after being completed in January.
Sort of a spur of the moment tattoo idea, but I’ve loved Rocky Horror my whole life to the point where I practically eat sleep and breathe it. David Bowie will be gracing my other forearm.
The piece was done by Andy Ferrier at Utility in Halifax, NS, Canada. The idea was mine, he drew it up for me!

I’ve been in love with Batman for a long time now and I’ve always wanted to show my love in a tattoo. This tattoo is my twist on a lot of other actual bat tattoos. Each bat is a different Batman symbol from every time his symbol has changed since is first appearance. There are a couple missing, I just picked my favorites. Then just to tie it all together, I added the I am in a speech bubble. The shading IS supposed to look like that to give it more a drawn/comic book look. I couldn’t be anymore happier with it. Shane from Red Crown in MI did this. AMAZING guy, js.

This is my second tattoo and yes, she this complete! I wanted to make it as an icon therefore this cartoon trace. The meaning of it is that all heart is a revolutionary cell. So gears and mechanical elements (which refer to the industrial revolution). I’ve devised a draft of the design and the great tattooist Sosthenes Lopes (Campina Grande, Paraíba, Brazil) concluded.

My mom calls me “baby bird” and has since I was a little girl. We decided to get tattoos together for the second time when we visited New York for Christmas. We were wandering around Brooklyn and found a cute tattoo parlor in Williamsburg, where we met Kimberly, a tattoo artist that travels and happened to be in town from Canada that day. She happened to be free and sketched this beautiful design for me (along with a baby bird in the tree roots) based off of many of the antique mirrors in the tattoo shop. Red was a clutch decision, and a good one at that.

Picture taken 5 minutes after being finished.
I’ve always loved whales and ever since I was a child, my biggest dream have been to see wild whales with my own eyes. I made this as a reminder that I one day will reach my goals.

“I’ve been a good little worker bee; I deserve a gold star.”
Lyrics from the song Worker Bee by Motion City Soundtrack. I am absolutely in love with this piece. I took my drawing in, and my artist tweaked it and really made it shine. I love it. It was the perfect graduation present to myself after 4 years of high school.

This was the day I got it so it is a little puffy. It was done by Leanne Thief at Black Rabbit Tattoo Studio in Port Moody.
This is my first tattoo and means a lot to me. Love is what I want for me in my life. I want people to think of me as loving. I want to think that of the person I spend my life with. I want to be surrounded by those who love. It represents that as well as the song “So Much Love”, by The Rocket Summer. For those of you who are not familiar, the song pretty much says “Look how amazing you are because you have love. I have not seen such love before, and that makes you beautiful.”. That is also how I would like people to see me, and how I would like to see my partner.

My Phoenix Tattoo! Done by Pete Clarke at The Dead President’s Lounge in Albany, NY. I’m so happy I can finally submit some work to this amazing site!
I got the phoenix because I can relate to it. I have had so many struggles in my life and through each of them, have learned something and became a stronger person because of them. In a sense, reborn from my own ashes. I love him. His name is Rocco!

I decided to get this as my first tattoo because when I was diagnosed with diabetes 10 years ago I knew I would have it for life. It plays the biggest role in my life everyday. Good or bad. It also doubles as a safety measure incase EMTs need to help me in an emergency, they will know that I have Type 1 Diabetes. In all I love this tattoo and how it came out. The best thing is that the person who does my tattoo’s is also one of my best friends so I enjoy getting them. Done by Kevin Lockwood out of High Voltage Tattoo’s in Batavia, NY. That entire shop is awesome.
