Got Ink?

[mwcfarms]

Well some people love ink and some don't. I am definitely an ink lover. This is the biggest piece I have to date. 10 hours total freehand. I love it. Just thought I would share for the ink lovers.

Digging it! It looks beautiful, Dee. I bet that cost a pretty penny!

Thanks! Yah I could have bought a nice lens for that piece but its been in the works for the last couple years. I know that when I am 80 and all wrinkly it might look funny but then I figure the grandkids can play guess the shape with my back. Haha.

Nice

Is there a story behind it?

The owl is one of my totem animals and each feather is for my kids.

It's really well done!

Thanks I'm tickled pink with it, I know they're not for everyone but I love ink!

Well Dee, I tried to take a photo of my right arm (my inner forearm) which has my one and only tattoo on it to share. It's much harder than you'd think.

LOL, I tried that before too. Getting your arm far enough from the camera, and trying to look through the viewfinder just doesn't work. I think I ended up finding a book the same thickness of my arm and focusing on that (camera pointed down, book on a table). Swap book for arm, take picture.

I have a few, but only one picture. The picture isn't very good, so I'm not going to post it, lol. (It was a long exposure, and I moved a little.)

Wait - I do have one that came out OK, but I can't find it right now... I need new pictures anyway... And color ones too, lol. (WTF - my spell checker keeps getting switched to Australian English ... it was giving me red squiggly lines under 'color'...)

Pretty classy tats there, with the peacock feathers and the owl!!

 

[mwcfarms]

Haha well i'm mostly a girly girl you know so it had to be pretty and not too cartoony, I have a bunch of other ones but that's my biggest and most favorite right now.

 

[naptime]

27 to date.

I don't have any ink, it's just not my thing, but I think that one is beautiful.

It might not work but I bet it's funny as hell to watch someone try.

I love the coloring in the peacock feathers

I have four, three of them I got when I was 16... Ended up with the ultimate tramp stamp, a play boy bunny (WTF was I thinking!?!), a small cat face on my right butt cheek (again, WTF was I thinking..) and a little tiny female symbol in the middle of my lower stomach. The other one I got two years ago when I was 26 and it's a bow (ribbon) on my wrist.
